[PaintPro21]

Our site is almost up and running. I'm hoping it's good to go on Friday or Monday. The important products like the ARC-8 wheels will be available on the site. Everything else will be added over time. I'll provide a link once we're up and running.

I'm also posting updates on our facebook page, blog and twitter. I can post groupbuy status updates, and new product releases to these sources. We're working on a number of brand new wheels at the moment. I'll have samples of some of them in a few weeks, and more in the coming months.

Ok... Z1's or NT05's? Its a DD and i need 0-60 traction.

Thanks

I don't know about the NT-05's. Is that the newest from Nitto? I dunno about 0-60, but I think the lead mod on IWSTI used them on his '08 project and liked them, but that was on the track.

The NT-05 has about the same rubber are Toyo's T1R. So, don' expect any track friendlyness. Okay for a street tire.

NT-05 is not comparable to the T1R. It's an aggressive tire that is similar to the dunlop z1. It makes for an excellent HPDE tire. I can't comment on 0-60. I would think they are very similar to each other with their large contact patches and relatively low tread wear rating.

I imagine the Dunlop is cheaper, size for size though? I may be wrong since I haven't looked, but I really think Dunlop produced a winner that, price wise, is hard to beat.

^They are pretty close to each other, as well as the Kumho XS (not available in 235/40 only 245/40+).

The RE-11R and Advan's are ~$200 in 235/40/17

NT-05 would be more like the R1R.

they are within a few bucks of each other.

There's a thread on here that is addressing the debate between the star specs and the NT-05.
