i have them on my fronts and the nitto 555 drags on the back no complaints so far i love them.

i also had them on all 4 corners of my old car and they stuck to the ground really well and have a nice treadwear life.

245/45-17s (555s) up front, and 315/35-17s (555r's) out back...surprisingly the drag radials do well in the rain, and the 555s hug the road alot better than the kumho 712s i had on there before.

I also had my BALD goodyears switched out for 4 new Niito 555's.
These tires are great. I dont hear any road noise. traction is good....Wet traction is good so far ( i only drove once in the rain with them with no traction loss) I would buy them again.....the 245/45/17 are ONLY $106 at www.discounttiredirect.com NiCe!!!!!!!

I've been running them on my car for about 30k miles. I love them. They're great for street/strip, and even aren't too bad in the snow here in Northern Virginia. Highly recommended.
