Tires NITTO or DUNLOP
Here are my initial impressions:
Pros:
a) Quieter than the Dunlop Super Sport 7000s that come stock. This could be because my stock tires were showing some surficial cracks in the rubber, although this complaint is normal. The stock tires crap out within 50,000 km anyhow.
e) Good rain performance...no issue with braking during rainfall on these tires.
Cons:
a) Sizing of the stock tires means that the tires will follow the downslope direction of the road crown, even if it's a minor one (this is partially due to the short wheelbase and hyper sensitive steering rack). I got my tires aligned after the install, before the alignment brigade chimes in.
Overall, I am very happy with the tires. They work as advertised and didn't tear a hole in a my wallet. They are a valid option for those seeking new tires for the Fit.
I have 315/35/20 NT05 on the rear of my challenger 392 widebody, and it's been raining a ton in California lately. Surprisingly, they have been totally fine in the rain.
I am really wanting to try out the nitto Nt 05 I am in the process of replacing the stock tire for the first time but those tires would not last me a month if I was to daily them. so I am going with the Nitto invo seem like a good tire not being able to go with any I used when I was driving my beetle.
I run Audi A3 17" wheels with Dunlop 3D sport winters. They're not the best snow tire, but they are significantly better than an all season and I have yet to have any issues getting around. Car feels stables, and brakes are actually effective unlike with all seaons.
Nitto trail grapplers by far. Best tyre I’ve used
But the Nitto SN-2 has been long wearing so far, 2 seasons and still plenty of life to go.
when i had my 03 wolfsburg i ran 225/45/17 dunlop signature HP's, amazing tire for the money
I went with the neo gens (205/40) they do stretch good however the sidewall is noticeable bigger than the 195/40 federal.
I had the Nitto 420S on my Ram SRT-10. The tread virtually did not wear, but they had the worst wet traction I've ever experienced by the time they were 5 years old. They turned to rocks despite still having 90% tread. No rotting or cracks.
I have these on my Jeep. They are downright dangerous on anything but dry pavement.
