Does anyone have experience with either of these tires on rear? 275/40/17's. My Nitto 555's spin like crazy so I want better traction for street use.

I had the NT05's on my '97 Cobra & loved them.

I’m running NT05s on all 4 corners of my 2000 Cobra R... fantastic tire!

You need to get a lot of heat in them to get them to perform, or so I've heard.
Always used BFG's myself, but you won't get any mileage out of them.

You likely know this, and its not a direction you want to go but Hoosier has the R7 in that size. GREAT traction there. I have used these on a street car before.
