Are toyo and nitto same company? I see some big similarities in the faq or whatever its called telling about not running the nitto drags or toyo drags below 32f. Just wondering if they are the same parent company or something.
It looks like the new toyos have some improvements over the nittos and woudl therefore expect nittos to come up with a newer version of maybe their tires soon.
I think going to try the new toyos as they are much more available locally than nittos. Also just like to try the newest tech. I have been pretty pleased with my current nitto drag radials ,in fact run them on both my 96z and my 99z. But going wider tire on the 99 to hopefully help me hook up with the new 408 Tt combo. Realize nitto or toyo drag radials won't cut it at the track or for when want serious traction so just get a second set of wheels and mount some et street radials or m and h street radials on there.
