Nitto Tires

Anyone run or like any of the Nitto Tires?

The Nitto NT05 is a maximum performance summer tire that was developed using advanced computer simulation and extensive on-track testing. These development methods along with rigorous quality standards helped produce a street tire that provides precise and responsive handling and performance.

Nitto's new NT-555 is for the performance-driven individual. When this new tire went on the drawing board, Nitto's engineers utilized racing concepts like the biggest achievable tread contact patch and specially formulated tread compounding to put incredible traction and handling at the very center of the NT 555's character.

Nitto Tire introduces the Neo Gen, the latest offering from Nitto Tires specifically designed for Sport Compact enthusiasts. The Neo Gen features a silica reinforced tread compound which improves tread block rigidity for enhanced wet and dry traction. The all-season Neo Gen tread pattern is an asymmetrical non-directional design, optimized for balance in both wet and dry road conditions. The inside shoulder and center tread areas have a combination of circumferential and slanted grooves that provide water drainage from the contact patch. The low void-ratio, outside shoulder blocks are designed for excellent handling and cornering reponse.

I've been really happy with my invos and they are wearing pretty well.

How would a 'square' set-up work with Nitto NT05 235/40ZR18s? I have GTS-R wheels and currently run RE-01R 225/40/18F and 255/35/18R.

are the wheels square too, or would the wheels be staggered. what are you using the car for?

I'm trying to understand what you mean by "how would a square setup-up work". the question could mean a number of things.

I am running the Nitto INVOs on my 135 and I am happy with the performance and comfort. They are an excellent street sport tire with a good mix between comfort and grip.
