Nitto NT05 Tread life????

TBSS2008 · 11-04-2009, 04:52 PM

I realize this is an old tread, but before you sold the NT05 and stock wheels, what was your impression? How did the nitto's compare with the OEM Bridgestone? After 7500 miles the tread looks pretty good. I am looking for a very aggressive street tire that I can get at least 20,000 miles out of. I have 13,500 on my OEM Bridgestone Potenza’s it looks like I can easily get 20,000 more miles out of them and I am not easy on these tires but I do a lot of highway driving.

If you are a more conservative driver, I would recommend the Toyo T1R. I had a set of these on my S2000 and for the first set, I got about 21,000 miles out of them. For the second set I was shredding through the GA streets and so far they have endured 17,000 miles and will probably need to be changed in pretty soon.

Just my .02.

They have a lot more road noise then the stockers. But I love mine.
