I have two 305/35/18 Nitto 555R Extreme drag radials. This has been a trusty street/track setup for me, but I am going to go another route and have to make room in the garage.
These have about 7 passes on the track and 6 on the street, and couple hundred miles of driving. Tires are still in very good shape, I will take more photos of remaining tread over the weekend.
These will fit an E55 AMG, CLS55 AMG, SL55 and 65. My E55 is lowered by a decent amount so these rubbed a bit on the outside - but only when the car was lowered, would not rub when it's raised. SL or CLS will have no issues at all, and stock height E55 will be fine too. Slight rub did not bother me![Big Grin](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
As far as grip goes, I saw consistent 1.7 60' and 11.6-11.7 passes. On the street these things are monsters. Here is a clip of me launching vs a 996 Twin Turbo which is all wheel drive![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
