I went from the 615's to the 555's. I wish i hadnt. In my opinion the 615's are a better tire and perform better. However they do wear a little quicker onthe street. One set lasted me a summer, but i drove on the street with them ALOT.

let me just add in here, that i just moved and am low on spending cash
looking for the best bang for my buck, and would like them to last more than a few months ideally
i know that the RE-11 and those tires are great, but a little too expensive right now
ALSO: anyone with experience on the nitto Invos?

I woudl have went wiht the NT-05s but tread wear is a bitch ... so i went with the 555's. The two tires do not compare in the slightest (not that they shoudl because they are for two different purposes). THe 615 was a very nice middle ground of the two.
I do think the 615 would be good for ya. They should last you quite a bit.

NT555's are what i am running now. Pretty decent tire for the street, but not sure how it would hold up on the track. They can be found on ebay for pretty cheap depending on what size you need.
