I can't find them on their website at all. Are you sure you ordered the 305/35-20 555R Drag Radials from Discount Tire?

I called and spoke to my salesman i use everytime. He pulled them right up on the computer and ordered. He said he had to order directly from Nitto so no clue on time but he seemed to think maybe a week or so. Will let you know when they arrive

About ******* time! I was happy with a 280 treadwear rating tire. I should've waited a few more months. I don't think you're going to get amazing 60's with these though given the low stiff sidewall.

I ordered these for an SRT8 jeep which has a factory 275/40/20 so should work perfect for it.

I agree. I highly doubt that they'll prove useful at the track, but I'm sure they'd be much better around town than my current 265/35 20's. I just have to figure out a way to get the rims widened to 10" without breaking the bank.

I have a buddy that works at Discount Tire...I'll have to call him up and see what he says.
