Nitto Tires
Does anyone know if the Nitto 555 tires area ny good. I heard they are good tirets for tracton but they are made for racing only and they die out so freakinfg fast...but i know the potenza S-o2 is the best and the only problem is that they die out fast too but would the nittos realy die out even faster than that? I mean i dont really mind getting the nittos if i can at least last a year or year and a half with them. Because someone is selling some volk racing AV3 with the nittos and just wanted everyones opinion on it. They are 18" x 7.5 selling around 1700 right now.
