Nittos!

BumbleBeeStang04 · November 2nd, 2007, 01:20 PM

It's time for me to get new tires and I've been leaning towards the BFG Geforce Sport. I've heard alot of people using the Nittos as well but I don't want a tire that is gonna wear fast. I hook up pretty good with my Falkens and 3.73 gears right now and I know the Geforce Sport will have better traction but if the Nittos get the same amount of life I might go for them. Although I think the Nittos have a UTQA of 100 while the BFGs have a UTQA of 360

100? the radials have 120. the regular 555 are 300. they hook and drive great. i have tried 5 different sets of tires and the nittos by far were the best i have ran.

If you're hooking good on your falkens, chances are that you'll hook good on anything.... Not enough power to break loose on nitto's or BFG's. However, the nittos will outlast the BF's by almost 5K miles on the long run.

nittos in my book are the best bang for the buck tire for us stangers, you can get a 315/17 for 160 bux and they handle great in rain, snow and wear pretty well, plus they hook decent when theres not much power being laid down. the drag radials will hook vbetter than any other street radial though

How many miles are you guys getting out of your nittos?

BumbleBeeStang04 · November 2nd, 2007, 06:00 PM

Does Nitto make a 315/35/17 tire that isn't a drag radial? I can't seem to find any. I only want 17x10.5 rims on the back if I can get a tire with a 300 UTQA rating and doesn't cost 300 bucks a tire

No drag radial is going to last as long as a 'traditional street tire', and no 'traditional street tire' is going to give you the performance of a drag radial.

From what I have read on forums all over, the Nittos will last longer than any other drag radial.

I love them! And just ordered my second set today!

Yeah, it seems that 10,000-12,000 miles is about all your going to get out of them on an average driven car with seeing little to no track time
