Sounds like a pretty good deal...Have you used the NT05 for AX in the past? Used any others to compare these to?
I'm thinking of going with the RE71 or Rivals but I've never run the Nitto so don't know how they'd compare.

I have on the GTO in my sig. They are great on the track for a beginner/intermediate and you want more life out of them than other street tires. They don't take a lot of heat so they perform well even on the first few laps...although that also means they can get greasy when super hot but in my experience I've never gotten there. For an advanced driver they may be too little tire.

Only other ones I've used are RS3s, and IMO liked these better. Those gave out too quickly and took more heat to work well.

I'm AX only so I think I'd be ok as far as heat goes.
I was planning on the RE71. We use them on a 2nd gen and work well. They seem to be the go to tire around here, but If I could figure out a cheap way to ship, I might take these off your hands...got any ideas?

Able to ship to 14618 if it doesn't work out with '95? If not, that's fine. Good tires to pass up, so I figured I'd ask.
