agressive summer tires?
agressive summer tires?
i am looking into buying tires within the next 2 days. id really like something as agressive as the nitto nt-01 but the life of those must be very short right? im guessing 10k or less?
any other sugestions, pics, links? etc. let me know
also is there anybody that drives the nt-01's on the street? im guessing scary in the rain..?
i am plannin on tryin auto-x this year and i live 15 mins from the dragway so im sure i will be there a bit..

Search Dunlop Z1 Star Specs. I have multiple track and AX days on them. And some 1/4 tuning runs. NT01s are a bit different. Dont think anything short of the Kuhmo V710s will count.
My .02 but one of the best tires I have run yet (Stock Advans, Sumitomo HTR IIs (street), RT615s, Kuhmo ASX (street))

After looking at another thread on here I have looked at the Z1's and they do sound like a great choice. I haven't run them yet so I'm not 100% sure. However my favorite tire by far is the Goodyear Eagle F1's they just do everything so well for a street tire and are outstanding in the rain to boot.

Dunlop is a part of Goodyear 
Z1s have done everything outstading so far. I dont fear rain as I once did on the 615s. I would not have dared to run Grattan in the rain if I was on the 615s.

these are as close as you can get to nt-01's without going r-comp:

Z1s or the potenza re-01r both are highly rated summer tires, check this tirerack test:
