No traction...
Top of 4th gear with Nitto Dr's and full throttle will break them loose @ 14 psi . 
Only thing better is scaring the hell out of a few friends that have come for a ride .

Give these tires a try, they hook up alot better than the BFGs and Nittos. I had the Nittos on and got no tracion with them. The BFGs were better than the Nittos. The Hoosiers are better than either the Nittos or BFGs.

I find that my Nitto NT-01s, once they are warm, can really hold some power!! I can't jam the gears, but nice clean shifts will help me out with traction...
