Will the world end tommorow? We HOPE not...but nothing is certain. Same is true for Nittos. Some guys have ran them for a year without breaking, some have ran them for a month without breaking....others have ran them for 2 passes and broke on the 2nd one.

I ran Nitto's and BFG's on my stock rear (w/ 3.73's) for over a year. It never broke. Lucky perhaps?

You can Ask 20 people this question and you'll probably get 20 different stories.

I never broke mine with them. I really dont see how you could, they dont hook at all.

Dont worry you'll be fine. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

I'm not looking to bust off some 1.7 60 footers. I'd be happy running consistent 2.0s with the occasional 1.9. Will Nitto's give me that?

IF you know how to launch the Nittos will work fine.It also depends if they prep your track well. I run high 11s at 117-118 with 60 fts of 1.79-low 1.8s on Nitto 275/50/15s on my M6 .Its just a matter of seat time. My race weight is 3550. I run 3.73s. Guys either have shitty prep at their tracks, or dont know how to launch if they say nittos dont hook!!My o2s

and it wasnt the launch on nittos that broke my first rear, it was hitting 2nd. my 2nd rear broke on the line. Nothin a 12 bolt didnt fix though
