Default ? on Nitto exteme NT450

i am looking at this tire for a good all around tire, i am also looking at the conti's and p zero's . i know p0's are best but cash is cash and i really want decent hook but good wet weather. it really boils down to money, but i went to pass someone yesterday and when i went to hook into second they just spun and spun, but hey, no a bad problem when u have to much torque for your tires huh?!? LOL

My '99 had brand new N450R's on all 4 corner's when I had the stock 16" chrome wheels. They were fun, they screamed on the 1 -> 2 shift

I was stuck in a snow storm the first weekend I owned the car... here are a couple of pics that I snapped with my phone.









You may be able to notice 2 pics up, someone's legs are dangling out of the truck cab. Anyways, the car handled pretty well. Long as I kept a very light foot on the gas I didn't have many problems. I can't say for sure that they would be the best tire to buy for all-season use but with my limited experience, I was pleased.
