Nitto's or G-force KD
How do these two tires stack up against each other?
(Yes, one's an autocross tire and the other is a street tire)
Nitto 555RII VS BFG G-force KD

Not calling BS.... I just find it hard to believe a street tire could be on par with a Nitto "R" compound tire?
I mean some people like Nitto's and others do not. I have no opinion on Nitto's myself, I haven't any experience with them...
Maybe you can explain?

I wouldn't call a question a disagreement, maybe you would but not I...
If you've been the wheel/tire business for that many years and get that easily annoyed with questions, then maybe you need a new line of work? I don't get annoyed with the same old questions time after time in my line of work, It's called customer service! Answer a customers questions and concerns earn a customer for life. Respond to a customer with an attitude and lose him/her and all their friends for life...

uh, your not a customer killer. your some guy on the internet who's got multiple people telling you the same thing and you still need more answers. the term customer service really doesn't apply to you at all. but in ahead and get the nittos since you seen to be made up on them and enjoy their subpar performance. ya know there's a reason one tire is twice the price of the other

The two best tires I have used are the BFG KD and the Michelin PS2. The KD was a more in your face type of tire, but it PERFORMED! My PS2's seem to have a better ride to them and they also perform rather well.

"street" has so many definitions nowadays. let me know if you have anymore questions
Thank you.
