It is only made in one size presently, which is 275/40/17. It is the same tire as the Nitto drag radial, except it has a stiffer side wall.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A unique fusion of stiff sidewall construction and Nitto's popular Extreme Drag Radial tread design makes the new NT555RII an exceptional road course performer. Add to that its specially formulated soft compound, and you get a competition radial that exhibits impressive control and handling during severe lateral acceleration. Although the NT555RII is street legal, the tire's construction will offer a rougher ride when used for daily driving.
High block rigidity, soft compounding and large contact patch provide extreme dry traction in race conditions.
Two wide steel belts and two nylon cap plies stabilize tread for superior traction and handling.
Steel sidewall inserts provide control and stability during extreme lateral acceleration.
Spiral wound, jointless bead construction ensures high casing stability for superior control at high speed.
Low void ratio and large tread blocks optimize dry traction.
Heat cycling recommended for optimized performance and wear under race conditions.
W- or Y-speed rated (depending on size), 6/32" tread depth, 100AA UTQG Rating.
