Default Buying a bullitt tommorow !

Im pretty excited about it. I'm buying a 01 bullitt true blue. With only 37k miles on it I do need to get some tires for it and I kinda want to get some deep dish rims for the back so I came accross the tire wheel package at americanmuscle.com


My question is are those good tires?

One is nitto and the other is sumitomo? I think

What do you guys think?

Congrats on the purchase, I approve lol. I wouldn't get those tires. IMO I recommend a decent street tire like bfg kdw 2's. Great tire and looks sexy as hell. Are you going 18's or staying 17's? I like TB bullitts with anthracite dd Bullitts personally. If you have any questions let me know.

^ I agree with both fella's above.

i have kdw2's and so far have been nothing but impressed. however out of those 2 choices, the nitto's are a far better tire than the sumi's.

I got the Sumitumos, Not a bad tire on a budget (which I'm on). If I had $ I would get the nittos or bfgs. Tires are a consumable so if they don't work I'll wear them off and try something new. I am actually very pleased with the performance with the sumitumos all in all. If you got the cash put towards some more go fast goodies as the sumis are good enough for me.
