Nitto's new NT05R DR works well John from the testing I've read, it is much more aggressive but loses the better street manners the old 555R had.

You know what the problem was there .... yep, not enough RPM ... A few hundred more and it would of turned them a bit
But it deffinately hooked that day ;)

My car has 315/xx/18 Hoosier Drag radials on it, and they hook 700+rwhp really well on the street... however, if you go into a turn with any speed, they scare the shit outta you...

How much air did you have in them? I drove an hour from my house to PRP with around 25-30psi and the ass end was all over the place. Upped the air to 35psi and they were rather stable.
i'm not real sure honestly - i don't recall - haven't checked them since the day i brought the car home.......
do they still get any traction with that kinda psi??

Kinda lol, it's your choice... low psi for grip or high psi for piece of mind while driving to the track.
