Our IRS return just arrived and per an agreement with my better half, I am in the market for 4 sticky street tires for my 87. The widest tire that will fit the new 8" wide rims is a 255. My budget is 800.00 mounted and balanced. The car is rarely driven but when it is, it's usualy at WFO.


Any suggestions for a max grip summer tire at a decent price?

i have read good reviews on the Nitto 555's from what the reviews said the tires arent that great when you first start driving but once they warm up you can actually hear em stick to the ground and they grip really nice, im gonna get these for my next set of tires

they run $134 a piece
