Nitto 555 vs Nitto 555r?

Any experience with these tires?
I plan on putting a strong clutch in and upgrading gears. Car mainly for aggressive street driving but some drag too.
Sorry for another tire question. I know there's a lot out there, and I'm just trying to pick the right tires. If I go with the 555r then I would be putting Firehawks SZ50's in front.
So basically is 555r good on street too? I just need some clarification between the Nitto 555r and the Nitto 555.
Thanks.

The 555 is the street tire.
The 555R is the drag radial.
The 555RII is the Road Race/AutoX tire.

For normal street driving the 555R and 555RII will probably only last about 10,000 miles.
