Should I get Bridgestone RE-11's or Nitto NT-05's?

OP, listen to reviews from actual members who have experience with tires and who have driven on both models The RE-11 and NT05 are both great extreme performance summer tires.

OP, listen to reviews from actual members who have experience with tires and who have driven on both models The RE-11 and NT05 are both great extreme performance summer tires. If money isn't a factor in your decision then I would go with the RE-11 (Expect to pay ~$250 more for the set of four). That doesn't mean the NT05 is a bad choice though.. They both have comparable dry grip but the RE-11 has the advantage in wet grip and comfort (smoother, less road noise, etc..).

i hate nitto tires, im just sayin.
Your "review" of the Nitto NT05 is based off your previous experience with other Nitto tires from a few years ago That's like me saying don't get the RE-11's because the Bridgestone RE92 tires that came on my Subaru WRX were some of the worst tires I've ever drove on.. Typical response on forums though, people shedding light on products they have no experience with
