I am getting new tires for my new rims...

I mostly seen eveything that i like, BF Goodrich G-Force sport is what i had before, but as i read online the Nitto NT555 is the tire everyone seems to love.... i know! Tires are like donuts....Eveyone has their Adventure stories with them!

Anyone run Nittos?
input would help on this...thanks

Are you looking for a nice street tire or a somewhat racing tire?

street mostly...I dont race the cobra.

My dad really likes the Eagle F1's he has. The nittos arent too bad but I think they wear faster. My dad hated the last pair of BFG's so he'll never try them again.

I have Nitto NT450s on the Cougar. I never really pushed hard on them, so I can't vouch for how they are however.

I have Falken ST01s on the truck (I think that's the #), I have zero complaints with them, either. They were the cheapest I could find on the size I wanted, and they had favorable reviews. Rain was good with them.

I ve had eagles before..Great tire..they kinda wear fast,I ve had the Falkens before too...not bad for the money

My dad swears by the Eagle F1's on his T/A

I had Nitto's on my Mustang. Gripped really well... when it wasn't snowing (yes, I was quite the dumbass to have Nitto's on a car in snow. I am aware of this)

I had 4 BFG KDW and never had a problem with them but to keep costs down I put Nitto555 285/40/17 on the rear of the Cobra a couple years ago and they seem to be holding up pretty well. This from a (old guy) street perspective, I don't do a lot of racing these days.

Long story, but I ended up with Kumho's on the front and they're worn bad. More of a shit TFT alignment than the tires themselves.

My street racing days are long ago too , i was going with a 275/40/17 and a 255/40/17 front and back...seems like the a good match!...but if i run Nittos i might run a 285/40/17 ..people tell me they run a smaller....

Yup nittos do run smaller their 305 dr's looked like 285's.

i have nitto neo gens on my prelude and i love them, if your looking for something thats a sticky tire go with neo gens or nt-01 nitto's. have the nt-01 on my 240

hmm...305s in the back might be better if i go that tire.

hey you owned up to it ..1 point for you!

Maxxis Tires, try them, the price is real cheap, the tires are nice, they have like no treadwear, I have these on my 17's on the supra.

Yes, the Nitto 285s are definitely smaller than my BFGs were.

I should add the 285s are on 10.5" Rims.
And 255/45/17 on 9" fronts.

i used to have nitto neo gens on my 17's and loved them good traction and they dont wear at all, i had a camber prob with them and the never wore down

thats what i m running 9 in front 10.5 in back

i ll check em out.

..wow

The nitto 555r is a great tire they hook up great but there not a great lasting tire i had a set on my camaro before i bought the bfg's im a fan of the bfg's they have great traction but then agai i dont drive my car everyday so its kinda hard to say but if i had to pick bfg ftw

My dad tried the Nitto 555r's and didnt like them same thing with the BFG DR's, both wore down quickly too.

thats what i was running before..BFG g-force Sport..they did have a lil tire hum to them.. but other then that a good tire....would have got the KDA s but not in my price range .

How about BFG Comp TA , I used to have them and loved them

they dont make the Comp TA anymore..I have Bfg traction TA s on my 91 Mustang..not quite the same but in that same tire line...their ok!

love nitto's they are an all around amazing tire. have had my neo gens on my lude for over a year now and have done 2 cross country trips on them, still like no wear, and i too have a camber problem. love them
