I don't think so. Can't remember though.

I got them in May I think and put on about a week after I got them.

Damn, we haven't had a meet in a long time.

I had them now for 7,000 miles since last June. They look okay for me. I drive hard and take corners hard too. I rotated after 5,000 miles. I do not see a wearing problem.

I will swtich to winter tires in Nov or Dec..... I think should last some 3 summer seasons or 30,000 miles.


And or only $148 for each 18" tire they are Recommeded!

Now there will a new Nitto 555R-II Extreeme.

I got mine from a local Town Fair Tire.
