The NT05R drag radial works in unison with the NT05 max performance street tire, so you can put the drag radials on the rear axle, where rear-wheel drive vehicles need the most traction, and the NT05s on the front axle. When developing both product lines, Nitto developed sizing to fit modern performance vehicles.
Competition Performance

High-Speed Stability
The enhanced sidewall construction combined with high-modulus bead filler and large shoulder blocks increase straight-line stability.
Specialized Race Compound
The new drag racing-specific compound was engineered for increased traction at the starting line.
