Nitto NT01 Track Competition 215/45ZR17 87W Passenger Tire

Use these on my M3 which is set up for track weekends. Very sticky once warmed up, give lots of feedback, and are predictable at their limits. So far they've handled 6 days of multiple runs sessions, and ~8,000 miles of road time and still have lots of life left. Not bad in the damp, just no standing water or they'll hydroplane quickly. And any temps less than ~40*F means leave the car parked, because they lose all grip if not warmed.

These tires are great for "spirited" driving. Even with 700+HP. They perform especially well once warmed up. Cornering and/or straight line traction is excellent even at my power level. They even last quite a while with my driving style. I saw ~10,000 miles on each of my previous two sets. I believe these are the best sticky "street" tires you can get. Considerably better than the competitors tires I've had in the past. I only have two real complaints. One, is that they are a little sketchy in heavy rain, however coupled with the NT05s on the front and some conservative driving... I've always made it home without incident. Two, is that they transfer a lot of road noise but, it's to be expected.
