your 555r's were looking perfectly fine compared to what i'm currently rolling on lol.

It's hard to tell in the picture, but the right rear has been showing strings for 1500 miles now, after the burnouts the strings were gone and a few spots of metal were showing! I run them at 22psi.

The foose rims are only 9.5" wide, the next nt05 size in the 20" is a 315. Current plan is this winter these two go up front and i'm going to have the rears widened to 11" and mount those fatty 315's.

Hey thank you Sir! I'll keep everyone posted, I'm just hoping for a second gear hook and 15-20K miles...

sounds like a plan on the widening of those wheels. maybe feathering the gas will help you drive slower in it because of the reduced traction...or maybe not
