    I've had three sets the 555's that the 555 G2's replaced on my former daily driver and they worked great.

    When the temps were above 65 degrees they stuck very well and were rather predictable, but that car only made 300-310 HP and produced 330-340 foot-pounds of torque.
    I've got the same 555's on my Dark Side MK-4 and they spin, spin and spin some more, but this engine produces someplace around 450 HP with similar torque numbers, maybe more.
    Many folks do better with the 555-R's (Drag Radial) out back so I'd suggest the G2's up front and the 555-R out back or maybe the NT01's on all 4 corners if you aren't worried about the rain.

    Please understand that while I really like the Nitto 555 Series, they can be easily overpowered in a super lightweight Factory Five.

    Hope This Helps & Good Luck!
