RE: OK IT'S TIRE TIME GUY'S/GAL'S!

I paid 148 or 138 a peice for my nittos.

As for rain driving, Ive driven my nittos in the snow, and it was the same as driving with my old bald snowtires in the snow.

Lol If your getting MT ET streets its much more than 20 dollars difference. MT's use tubes which are 40 bucks each. lol, i found that out when I called summit and got a price of like 700 for 4 tires. Some regular MT somethings up front and MT ETs in the rear. Ended up, as you can see, going with nittos 555R's in the rear and nitto performers up front.
