Default NTO1 any good

Im looking for a good sreet legal tire that will hook good how are the NT01's on unprepped surface? i think the stocks wheels are 16X8 not 100% positive, so im limited to a 255 i think? or can i go wider?

Nt01 is their autocross tire. Best bet would probably be a 555r. I don't think there are a ton of options for 16" wheels.

Yeah those aren't going to be good for what you are doing. I wouldn't go any wider than a 255 on the stock 16x8's.

Yeah not many options for 16's well... one 245/50/R16 but got em for 320 shipped hoping to see a difference going from a BFG G force to a nittos 555R thanks for the help guys.

Look at the NT05's or, if you want a DR, NT05R. NT05R's should hook a better than the 555R's and they cost $20 more ea.

I agree with everyone.. unless you plan on taking your car to a road course your better off with a different tire. On nitto's website I didnt see where the Motivo, Invo, NT555 or NT05 came in 16's the only option for a street tire in that size was the NT450.
