I put a couple of Nitto NT05's on the rear a couple of weeks ago, 245/35x19 in size.

Conditions being good, my car usually starts to "Hook Up" towards the top of 3rd gear, 1st and 2nd gear is pretty useless once any decent boost builds up. :launch:

Better than the tyres I had before......grip was pretty much non existent with them.

My car has a ZF 6 speed, standard stall.

"Conditions being good" means that they have heat in them and the road surface is grippy, otherwise forget it.

They aren't a real expensive tyre, so in the end, I suppose you get what you pay for. :dontknow:

I havent got them properly warm yet, but a few skids and a take off with car full of wheels and tyres did nothing

how are they holding up, they are well priced, and a decent tyre made in japan, but you dont get a whole lot of tread depth, they are half bald new

Show off lol. Mine just doesn't at all at the moment. With the short gearing in it foot down in 4th and it starts spinning, I don't do it any higher for speeds and for the preservation of 5th and 6th, when I break this box it has to be in a blaze of glory no tryin to overtake on the highway lol.
