Hey Guys,

Alright so I am going to need to replace all my tires due to the accident, but no the rims thankfully!

What do you guys recommend for front and rear tire sizes on the S197? Also, it's an 18" rim. By the way COST does not matter at all! I was thinking of doing the Nitto NT05's in the rear though- they look sweet and then Nitto's in the front as well.

Thanks!!! :awesomework::awesomework:

I would go with Nitto 555's up front, and Nitto 555R's in the back. The drag radials lasted me about 2 years with conservative driving (didn't beat on it everywhere I went, and didn't race it ALOT).

I am hoping those nt05r give me a huge bite at the track... nitro is saying u can get 15000 miles out of them as a street tire even though they are a drag radial

There is NO WAY thats going to happen, my friend has them on his GT500 and they are wearing fast. The 555R will go 15k miles.

I think my friend is getting 1.7 60fts with his GT500 on them...

I think it all depends on how you drive on them. I usually get about 20,000miles in a year, and my 555R's lasted me 2 years.

They are prolly rating them at 15k miles with conservative driving.
