Tire pressure for your daily driving on NT555 G2 35/275R19 and NT555 RII 35/305R19

[MCS]

What Tire Pressure are you guys running your NT555 G2 and NT555 RIIs at?

275/35R19 Nitto NT555 G2 in the front (31 PSI warm)
305/35R19 Nitto NT555 RII in the rear (30 PSI warm)

Not sure what they are at cold as I didn't check today but I believe they are like 28 or 29?

My experience between cold and hot is also about 4 degrees. Running at the track add about 2 more degrees on a 85 degree or warmer day with full sun.

I've got 305/45/17 Nitto RII drag radials and run them at 25psi all the time.

I don't daily drive my car anymore, but I always run it at that pressure.

Just to throw my opinion into it, my Nitto’s are gone the second I burn them out. Horrible tires.

I run my 305 MT’s at 18 cold and 22 warm DD street driven.

Yeah I think I’m gonna try and find a 17” rim and get some 305/45R17. Just need to find something that looks close to my Steeda tridents in the rear. Also see if the 45 sidewall will cause a problem with my lowered car (0.5”)

I run that exact size and drop with no issues at all!

Thanks. Guess I have some choices to make lol I see guys running bead locks on the back that aren’t the same brand or look as the front so I guess others have run into the issue. This is the first full summer with my RII in the back and they just didn’t hold up to the 660rwhp like I thought they would. So time to change it over the winter.

One of the reasons I went with the f14’s was they looked similar to the pp1 factory wheels. They offer them in regular and bead locks and even offer a front skinny that is identical if you ever wanted or needed one. I don’t run a skinny in front and just a normal sized 18 up front but if I ever wanted to I know I have the option to.

I have ps4s fronts at 30psi, run the 555rii at 28psi in 80 degree weather. They’ll lose about a psi every 10 degrees it drops. I’ve been pretty happy with mine at about the same power level. Why don’t you like them?

I feel like there is a lot of grip left on the table. I blow them off fairly easily. Sure they eventually hook but it’s quiet easy to burn them out.

I had my roush phase 2 put on when I had 275 all seasons, switched to 275 ps4s, now the 305 555rii. So I went from being able to blow them off at 80mph in 3rd to hooking 50/50 in first gear. What tire do you plan on running next?

Air those 305’s down properly and I bet your hook ratio will be a lot better!
