weird question i know, but has anyone run the RII on the front and rear together? curious to hear how they perform.

Kinda like the idea of being able to rotate them after each track day

For the past couple of weeks, I have been convincing myself that I would never need a drag radial and had decided to buy the Michelin PS4.......but since the 305/35R20 Michelin are on back-order for however long..... I guess I am going to "have to" go ahead and buy the Nitto NT555rll for the rears. Now to decide if I want the NT555G2 to match for the front or go with something else. I do drive it on the street and never drag strip, so that does come into play, as to which fronts to run. Ok, for those that haven't read what I posted in other threads....I do want to be able to hook as much as possible while street driven.

I had contis on front for 2 years with the toyos and they worked great. Any ultra performance summer tire should do.

I have Nitto Invos on the front with NT555RII on the rear.

I had the 555rll installed today, the 555g2 for the front should be in tomorrow or Wednesday. Almost didn't change out the fronts but decided to.

What did you have on the rears before the change? I'm very interested to hear about traction difference. I will soon go from MPS4S to the NT555RIIs

I believe the dodge demon came from the factory with drag radials stock on all 4 corners.
