I was really thinking of running the nt05r out back and nt05 standard up front. For price reasons.

I really started looking into the Mt et streets and holy crap can't touch a set of Rears in our sizes for less than. 675

yeah they do cost more, they get better grip than the nt05r in my experience but the nt05r has the advantage in handling and should last a bit longer... they are both soft drag radials so don't expect a ton of miles out of either one of them though... the nt05r is still a great tire no doubt about that and they should work quite well for the power you want to make

What I'd really like is some MH race masters but after dumping all my cash into new blower I don't have the left overs to just buy a whole drag set up on the side.
Gonna need a street able tire for our 18 that can still hook.
