aThe Nitto NT-555RII Extreme R road race and auto cross DOT competition radial tire was developed through a unique fusion between a race circuit oriented stiff sidewall construction and the popular Nitto Drag Radial tread pattern. These features combined with the high traction, specially formulated soft racing tread compound resulted in a competition radial that exhibits impressive control and handling, to provide maximum traction under severe racing conditions. The Nitto NT-555II is the designed primarily for competition road racing. The sidewall construction is optimized for handling extreme lateral acceleration.
