Tire question, Nitto tires?

So im in the market for some new tires, ive never bought tires for a mustang before, what brands do yall suggest. I don't race or anything if that matters.

and a question:

Im looking at Nitto tires right now, and they look like a good tire, does anybody have any experience with these?

thanks for the help.

K, for a $150 budget (per tire of course) what is the best deal, or ideal tire for around that price?

Nitto's rock. I love mine. And I only have 555's all around. But they hook pretty good for what they are. And they handle pretty well too. So I would definitly buy them again.

get the 555's, thats what i have on all 4. i had the DR for the rear and those only lasted a year, while the fronts(555's) still look new. highly recommend those tires.
