Got some Nitto NT05r's installed a few days ago. Impressed
Finally got around to throwing some tires on my 02 Z and my what a difference it has made. Went with the 315 35 20's which fit well given I had to remove the plastic fender lining in the back due to them barely rubbing. Went from spinning threw 3rd with ease to being able to get it to hook up some of 1st and most of 2nd now. And that's with 30psi in the tires. Very impressed with this tire and highly recommend them to anyone in the market. I got the set for 775 mounted and balanced. Only thing somewhat negative I can think of is a slight floating or light in the rear feeling sometimes in upper mph that causes the car to wanna sway a little bit. Not bad tho and I noticed with the car in competitive driving mode you can't really even tell. Anyways just thought I'd post my thoughts on the tires for anyone looking. Btw my power level is 506/466 when dyno'd with the ls6 intake on my ls3 427, it now has a fast102 so numbers should be a little higher.
