Think about running these Nitto NT05Rs in 245/40/18. I hear there a good sticky street/track tire. Looking for something that hooks up since my 420 treadwear Lexini tires sucks period. Hoping these are something for me. Thoughts? Who runs these and what do you think?

NT05r is not available in the size you want

If your location is Oklahoma, then you may want to take into consideration that NT05s become skates in the winter weather. I run Conti DWS 245/40/18 & 275/35/18 year round and save NT05s and Toyo R1Rs for track days above 40 degrees. Going from 265 DWS to 275 DWS made a huge difference in rear end grip.

Car doesn't get driven in the winter so no worries there.
