Nitto NT-05

Anyone else have their eyes set on these tires coming out? Treadwear is 200 and they seem pretty aggressive like a cross between an autocross tire and max performance summer tire. I think I might be giving them a try.

Here is a little initial impression of them http://forums.evolutionm.net/service...s-nt-05-a.html

I've been watching this tire as well. In speaking to Nitto directly about it. It is a cross between their NT01 and their NT555. Those are exactly what you mention. The NT01 is an autocross tire and the 555 is ulta high performance street tire.

Depending on the price, i'm going to throw a pair on the rear. If priced to much, i'm going to buy a set of 555 dr's. I do like the look!

Same here. 555r's are plan B.
