It's all in the size. You put 15" Mickey's that were bouncing all over (wheel hop) because your suspension can't handle the power. Try that with 18"-20" Mickey's. Your comparing apples & oranges.

@dbd73310 4 года назад

We had been trying to find tires that will hook with a 700whp/800wtq twin turbo vette, tried NT05R ran that for a few years and they were ok but spun a lot, tried MT S/S similar experience to yours, then the Toyo R888R we just put on and it is a completely different level of grip. FINALLY the car it is supposed to be. Pricey but its 100% worth it for the unbelievable traction. Will now be using this for every high HP application we have. Definitely recommend anyone with high HP build trying these out. Thx for the video.

@jessearias1361 3 года назад

I work for a Mickey Thompson distributor. The et street ss is a street tire that has good enough properties to compete at the strip for the novice. You the toyo is made for the track and not legal for street. The results were no surprise. Mickey ET street R would be a better comparison but still street legal

JD- I remember speaking to a Mickey Thompson rep when I ran ET street radials on my stick car, he said you only need to do a small burnout and just scuff the tires, the burnout in the video was wayyy to much and would have caused the tires to be over heated and greasy. If the tires are old and heat tempered they will require a longer burnout to be sticky but he said thats the point to toss them.

My Toyotas have 20,000 miles on them and they still have good tread and lots of traction. I personally like the Toyota T1 Proxes sport better than the Michelin Pilot Super Sport.

@johnny427 3 года назад

I had toyo t1 and swapped to R888R-s, it is day and night. Much better traction with the latter, more pricey of course but wear is not an issue because it is on a lightweight hobby car. I wouldn't recommend R888R-s on heavier cars especially if you don't run it on track and if you don't have serious horsepower.

@gruppegee 5 лет назад

I run 315 R888r's on my Camaro... 906/800 and these tires even in cooler weather hook well for me. I prefer handling over just straight line grip with a DR. These for me are the ideal mix of traction from a dig or slow roll, while still being able to attack curves on the road course, off ramp or back roads. Its a preference but they hold power, that's no a if. I also ran them a 775/690 C5Z with the same amazing results.

@blackstang89gt59 5 лет назад

My experience between nittos and mickeys are night and day. Nittos out the box, no spin. 100 miles later, they started spinning in 1st gear pulls. More miles, the worse it gets. Around 1k miles, 2nd became useless. Mickeys, over 3k miles and exactly the same as day one. Just a sec of spin the top of first at about 6200. Never heated the tires other then normal driving. The mickeys just seem more violent but i do not trust them in a turn due to lack of sidewall sizes. My cousin has an 03 cobra. Tried many tires and sizes to get all 600 down with an 11 inch ccw. A 315 toyo, allows 2nd gear to hook. We've been through many tires between us both. Recommend toyo over all others anyday for the street.

Such an important video JD!!!! I love your R&D. I've heard the Toyos are awesome and you just kind of proved it. I'm using the Kuhmo Ecsta ACR 355s and they hook pretty well. But I might switch to the Toyos next Summer. Great video! Keep up the JD R&D!

@loburbon 5 лет назад

I recently swapped out my MT ET street ss 305's for the r888r. For normal and wet weather the r888r is excellent. But unfortunately I can't launch at all without spinning like a stripper on a greased up pole.

@driv3n758 5 лет назад

My 900whp hellcat has proven (to me) that the MT absolutely de-fuckin-stroys the nittos. The 555rs felt like street tires in comparison. Haven't tried the Toto so can't comment on that. I can say that burnout was waaaayyy to long

@NativeDescent 5 лет назад

Nitto is made by Toyo, Toyo is japan and Nitto is essentially Toyo America. The 555R would be more comparable to the R888, where as the NT05 or NT01 would be closer to the R888R.

@noyjr9492 5 лет назад

So, which is better for street hooning... NOT5R or R888R?

Bhajan Singh they would be very similar in compound, but I would go for the Nitto as they will be cheaper.

You can try also the Hoosiers... In drag strips they are a very solid choice, dont know about street performance. Many Demons, Cobra Jet´s, Copo Camaros etc are running some Hoosiers.
