Good decision on avoiding the 01s for the street, as they will pick up anything on the road and throw into your fenders.

Are you speaking that I should consider the NT 05 or the NT 05R.

The comment for the hydroplane was for the NT05R I believe which is a drag radial. NT 05 looks to be a somewhat regular tire.

thanks
