Best tires for drifting performance?

KyleAdkins · 05-31-2008

Well, what do you guys think? Which tires would yield the best drifting performance.. for lets say.. Pavement?

A hard tire will drift better than a soft tire. You will pay for this in the ride. Also the amount of air pressure and how your braking and accelerating into your turns will lead to drift. For this I suggest the Nitto Tire.

Nitto Tire is one of the most popular tire manufacturers to create Formula Drifting tires. They create tires for all kinds of vehicles and driving situations. This includes creating Formula D tires for racing vehicles as well as tires for traditional vehicles., (including cars, trucks and SUVs). Their most popular model is the NT 555 RII.

That would be the one I'd suggest, the Nitto R II would be it.
