Nitto 555 G2 review
Haven't had them very long, not even long enough to "break them in", but already can tell a HUGE difference.
They heat up real quick Grip is in a different league than the MTs. - doesn't even chirp going into second, just grips and shoots you forward. -If I gunned it from 10 MPH, ie straight to 100% throttle, the old tires slipped and set off the traction control while these maintain 100% grip. -Only did few 0-60s and did 4.1-4.3-4.0. I look forward to seeing what she can do once they are broken in and I get use to how to launch on these tires. In short, worth every penny and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for all your help, patience with me, and advice! |

Nice man, I'm going with these too once my OEM's gets balded. Did you get a good deal on them?
I know MPSS are probably a tad better but it's more pricier |

I am sure there are stickier tires out there. I actually thought I was going to have to go a step above these to the NT05 but these are plenty good for the street and getting full enjoyment out of the car. Disclaimer: they are. 305 wide. But so we're my mickey Thompsons. |

I'd love to get better gripping tires once the back wears out more. |

What size tires did you go with? Are you running stock wheels?

Btw - the PSS are low stock because they are being replaced any minute now by the PS4S.
