Interesting development fyi...

Nitto NT01 tyres ARE NOT legal in Australia to be used on the street. Race tyre only despite the DOT claim. My tyre guy told me today about the issue when I enquired as to pricing and as a matter of curiosity I emailed another well known Sydney supplier to be told regarding my legality question that

"" They are DOT approved but stated on the tyre “RECOMMENED FOR COMPETITION USE ONLY” so best to check with an engineer or your local traffic authority in your state to confirm if they will allow you to run them on the street.""

Hmmm kind of long winded way to say NO don't you think? Buyer beware.
