How many miles/km have you put so far on those tires?

about 2,500 miles. The tread pattern is made to run a negative camber and still wear evenly. They are ideal if u drag and have a set of camber plates.

I know this is off topic but how do you like the wet traction with those tires? I've tried the Nitto NT-450 & the NT-505, I must say that I was disappointed with the wet traction especially so I was wondering if Nitto improve it with the Neo Gens.

I love em, the roads here are extra slippery when it rain because there is oil in all the intersections. (I have no idea why?), My Falken Azenis' on my last BMW couldnt grip it but these can.

I'm more into circuit racing more than 1/4 mile racing but I have friends who are starting to get into the 1/4 mile racing. I was wondering if any of you guys had experience with the Nitto NT-555 drag radial. Does it really work as good as what Nitto claims?

yea ive heard good things bout the nitto drag radials from some of my roushers.

and yes polo the 555's are A with a 300 wear rating
