greasy greasy how are the 555R2's hooking up for you?

Mook Mook when can I come over for a late night shoot at your place?

Not bad so far, although I haven't fully flogged her from a dig. I was initially running them at 30 psi cold and they were spinning a little, I took them down to 27 and it seems to be much better.

What are you running yours at on the street?

Whenever you want, sweetness.
Plan is to load the kid in the car tonight to burn the 93 out of the tank. Might have to stop by. Have fresh fries ready...lol

I'm running them around 26-28. They do well for me at that pressure so I haven't played with it at all. You have a nice sidewall on yours so I wonder if even less pressure will be better. Probably need to heat em up a time or two to get em nice and sticky.

Straight from Nitto for the NT555RII on my Hellcat..

Based on the information provided, the calculated inflation pressure for your tires is 29 PSI cold pressure.
For drag radials, a burn out is recommended in order to bring the tire temperature up between 160-220 degrees. At the track it is advised to start with 20 PSI and decrease in .5 increments till you get your desired result. You do not want to go any lower than 15 PSI as this may result in rim slip.

Wash, decon with Iron X and clay towel, polish with 3D One and a Urofiber pad, 2 coats of 3D Ceramic Coating.
Ok I need to have a sit down with you about this shit. I keep my cars pretty minty, but have never buffed or ceramic coated anything. Would like to buy some stuff and give it a shot, but need some good tips and what exactly to buy.
