The 555RII are an amazing street tire. Zero sway and they're as quiet as the Pilot 4S i had prior. I was between the R888R, M/T SS and 555RII. I went away from the Mickeys because I was worried about the sway I read about, even though I driven a 1k hp ZL1 on the interstate with no issues . Didn't want the loudness of the R888R. My mustang friend (10R80 car with a ESS G3 on 14lbs) recommended the Nitto and I'm extremely happy with them. 10/10 would buy again. They're comfortable into the triple digits as well. They hold the power well too. I run them cold at 27psi then with the FL heat they get to 30/32.

Don't know if it's a factor for you but the Nittos are W speed rated (168) where as factory tires and the R888r are ZR rated (200+). I feel like that factor is negligible.
