get the zr1s and nittos out back. i cant spin my nittos unless i REALLY try hard out of a turn i can kick it out a little bit. especially in Cali, the weather wont let you get em out from under you unless its pretty cold out, raining or your makinga good amount of power over stock.

i like the fact that nitto drag radials match the regular 555s. to me thats important. but treadwear of 100?! how long have you had yours and how many 32s you got left?

Can you go into depth on how to read the numbers about treadwear... like what do the numbers mean and such? Im not talking 5/32 I know what that is, but like when it gives you a number on the tires such as you just said 100, ive seen some with 80.. what does that mean exactly?

you will never see a tire with treadwear of 80. its not legal. the treadwear is based on the governments minimum standards. 100 is the governments minimum, so if a tire performs twice as good as the standard in all treadwear tests its given a treadwear rating of 200.

k... what does that mean. Im asking how it works. Does it mean it wears so much in a certain amount of time.. or, does it mean 200 wears slower than 100?
