I will not use a different tire unless I get more power in which case I'd go for the NT05 just because of how much I like these.
Everyone is obviously different but for my driving style there is no point in getting a more expensive tire than these.

For me, I'd like my car to stop losing itself when i hit the gas, even in 2nd.

Nitto is a good cost minded tire. It's kind of sub par in most categories but more than enough tire what most will throw at it. The people giving this tire great reviews are people that most likely don't explore the tires limits and/or haven't had experience with atop performing tire.

yea, running stock tires.

I'm looking for tires that will last while giving me the best grip when launching.

I think the nitto's are worse than the oem tires. A lot of what people are judging Things on are a new set of nittos vs a old worn out set of oem tires. In that situation, of course the nittos will feel better. But when they're both new, I think the oem tires are better.

I haven't run my 275 stock tires for a few months so I cannot compare apples to apples, but I asked a few board members and they all said the nittos are superior.

Most of those members probably haven't directly compared the two.
