Nitto NT05 245/40R19 98 W Tire

After three years of peddling and relying on traction control to handle the 718 rwhp, I can finally feel the power. 315/35/20 NT05R's mounted on 20x11 Shelby CS1's. All the modifications are working now and the car will flat out fly without wheel spin. Look great and aggressive. Do not stick out past the fenders either. Love this tire.

I have a couple thousand miles so far and I am very impressed. I have 255/35r20 in front and 305/30r20 in the rear. From the first drive I noticed a big difference. I can turn Advance Trac completely off and drop the clutch with minimum tire spin. These tires just hook and go and only a slight churp when power shifting. I also can tell a huge difference in steering response. The first time I dodged a pot hole I gave the normal quick steering input but the tires are so responsive that I almost hit the guard rail on the side of road because I was not expecting that much response. I have also been to the mountains a couple hours away and two things that stood out. First the long trip was very nice and enjoyable. These tires are not harsh or noisy. Second thing was how glued to the road the car was when driving very aggressive on the curvy mountain roads. Not once did I hear the tires squeal or feel like they were in distress. The Z06 I was following with Michelin PS2 tires was having lots of issues with rear wanting to step out and front pushing. When we stopped my friend told me he was impressed because he could not get away from me no matter how much he tried. Which was not the case the time before when we went and he walked away from me easily. The only thing that is not ideal is that when I left the car for a week and half in the garage and did not drive it i felt like when i brought it out it seemed to have started to have a flat spot on the tire which went away after a couple of miles of driving. I only notice if i leave sitting too long, so im very aware at how soft the compound is. But its great to have on the roads when you want to play. I will most certainly be replacing with the same when i wear these out, I love them. I have also owned a 97 z28 SS camaro and a 04 Z06 corvette and I can say with certainty that these are the best performance tires I have ever purchased.
