For those who seek the competitive advantage in drag racing, especially among front wheel drive enthusiasts, the Nitto competition drag radial is what you may be looking for. It's what the other guys are using to win. And when you're not at the track, you can use this DOT-approved tire on the street.

•"Soft" racing tread compound and 6/32" tread depth are specially constructed for maximum drag racing traction.

•DOT-approved design means you qualify for that class; and you can use the NT-555 on the street too.

•Unidirectional tread pattern allows for top speed at the track and excellent handling for daily driving.

•Combination of tread rigidity and center rib design ensures high-speed stability.

•Rim guard protects wheels against damage.

•V-performance rated (up to 149 mph)

Heat Cycling
Competition tires are built with a highly sophisticated tread compound. This compound is capable of sustaining traction throughout a much wider temperature range, but is also extremely sensitive to the first heat cycle of its use. During this cycle the tread compound stretches as it heats.

The Discount Tire heat cycling system ensures consistent results by maintaining key conditions during the heat cycle process. The system generates uniform heating and progressive temperature build up throughout the tread. The benefit of this process is a tread compound that lasts longer and provides better traction. All competition tire manufacturers recommend a heat cycling service. Have your competition tires heat cycled today and be race ready!
