[DeTomaso] tire opinion

[Mark McWhinney]

>> 2.  Nitto NT 555R Drag Radial - VR speed rating - 275/15/50 all the way
around (only available size) - about $750 mounted (these are the tires
Dennis (aka Dawg) wrote about last week)

I wrote to Nitto last summer and got this reply:


Dear Mr. Mark McWhinney,
	First I would like to apologize for the late response, we were
having difficulties with our system.  The NT555R are not designed for
road courses but for drag racing and limited street use only.  As of
right now there is no plans to offer our NT555RII and NT01 in wide sized
15". 

Thank you
