My preference is for normal weekend or more where you're concerned with tire wear (but not DD) driving and good track use, NITTO NTO5R.

For some street use and not worried about tire wear or getting caught in the rain and excellent strip performance, MT ET STREET RADIAL.

If it's my DD (though i read it's not yours) regular low wear tires good in the rain. And slicks for the track!



My 82 is just a weekend cruiser, drive it sometimes and drive to the track. It's got a decent amount of power where i don't even feel like i would want to get on it with a non DR tire. I don't want to get caught at a stop light with no tires either.
I run nt05R on 17's and I'm surprised by their grip after swearing off Nitto's 6 years ago.
