Ok so for a street radial on a 20in wheel what is your pick.

M/T 305/35/R20
NT05R 315/35/R20

Both are similar in price and both are a soft compound.

What's your pick and why?

The Nitto will give you more high speed stability.

Bump.......not meaning to hiJack...but I'm in the same boat between these tires.

I was leaning towards the MTs with 675rwhp for street only tire.

Are you asking about drag radials or just regular radial tires? If it's just tires I would say either but if you are asking for drag radials then MT will hook better just not last as long.

buddy has 650 to the wheels and he runs the mickeys. he hooks in every gear including 1st

How will the tires be used? What M/T are you talking about?

MT's will out perform but not last as long as stated before. I am 800 at the wheels, and I made the mistake of buying the Nittos when the MT's were on back order. Terrible choice. I am talking about their DR's, and for your setup, I can't imagine you doing anything else.

I'm 690WHP and I have the Nitto NT05R. They hooked good for 2,500 miles. Now they only hook after a rolling burnout lol
