is there any rubbing? I was a little hesitant to get a bigger tire until I could verify someone had run that tire already.

i used to run Nitto's on my TA WS6 and i liked them...wore well,hooked good and weather friendly ( as much as a DR can be)

i tried BFG ( not weather friendy,spun too easy)

i tried Mickey Thompson ( hooked really good espescially at the strip,didnt wear all that great,more air pressure sensitive than the other two)

for what its worth - i found the nittos to work the best for me on that car - although their sizing was sort of weird - they seemed smaller even in the same size
yeah, I have had 2 ls1 camaros. one was an 02 z28 auto and the other an 01 ss 6spd. I ran nitto 555rs on both of them and never had a complaint.

as of now, my only mods are the gmpp reflash, a catback and the K&N worthless intake. my clutch blew up the other day so soon it will have the spec stage 3 clutch and aluminum flywheel. also am having the shop fab me a catless downpipe.

*lol just realized you weren't asking me that.
