nitto tires...... how do you say it ??

like NEAT-OWE ? or like KNIT-OWE??

i always say it the second way mentioned above(knit) but i just saw a nitto tire commercial on speed vision (one of those cheesy ones thats more of a plug for the company than a commercial) where the guy said it like neat-owe...it sounded dumb.

Stone0fFire

did you say the guy on the nitto commercial pronouned, "NEAT-OH"?
god damn.
and i always said "KNIT-OH"
maybe i should have listened to the wife when she said "KNEE-TOE"
but.. she can barely speak english so..
nevermind.

did you say the guy on the nitto commercial pronouned, "NEAT-OH"?

Spohn is one of the spohnsers ....he he he.>>>>>>>>>> That's how I say it.
It's the name of the company/ person. Makes a torque arm for your cars.
Knit-oh, for the other.

KNIT-OH

The correct pronunciation is NEE-TOE, although most people say NIT-OH.

The company is a Japanese company, its definitely NEE-TOE, just like Nissan is NEE-SAN.

You sure about that Tony?

Still, I'd call it a nit-oh or you'll get a strange look here or there.

I wouldn't take some TV personality's pronunciation
for anything. You're lucky if they read the 'prompter
right.

just rub off the nitto part & extreme Drag and write "KELLEY" in white lettering.

you'll win more street races..

I've always said "knee-toe". One of my ricer buddies told me how to say it three years ago...he owns a Honda so he must be right.

bigMAC

OMG... cracks me up...LMFAO!!! ROTF!!!

I'm confused on Spohn too. I always called it Spoon (like the utensil), but I hava a funny feeling it is Spoh-n like you mentioned (with a long "O" sound)

So which is it?
Spohn rhyming with: toon, room, zoom?
or
Spohn rhyming with: Phone, comb, knome?

I've always heard it pronounced Nit-oh
