Tires NITTO or NANKANG
If you are talking about the neogens, they stretch amazing. I also have 215/35/19's on an 8.5. I was able to lower more after switching to these.
Looking to replace the nitto neo-gen tires. We have about 20k miles on them. They have been getting louder and louder for the past 8k miles. Overall they have been a good tire.
i havent had an issue with tread life... i mean yea these arent no ****ing pirelli's or falken's. but for the price they've lasted me. and like i said i ONLY buy nankangs.
Nitto NT05 European Car Magazine has recently reviewed a set of Nitto NT05 tires and posted the review on their site. \"The Nitto team put its test time on the Nurburgring to good use; the NT05 exceeded my expectations in both handling and straight-line performance.\"

Im running 195/40/17 on my Corrado. I was never a fan of 17's but absolutely fell in love with these ultra rare BBS's and decided to buy then and put them on anyways. Since I didnt want to rub I bought smaller yet still reasonable tires. They are made by nanking but your brands are limited with oddball sizes.
Nitto Neo Gen tire received second place overall with the editors commenting that the Nitto Neo Gen had basically tied with first place. Fifteen tires from several tire manufacturers were tested in nine categories, mainly focusing on dry handling and traction, wet handling and traction, and ride comfort. All tires in the test were sized 225/40R18. All tires were tested using an Audi A3 3.2 on a closed test course. This data was combined with results from independent tread-wear testing which evaluated tread wear up to 12,000 miles. The Nitto Neo Gen had a strong showing in all tests. The Neo Gen received a ranking of Very Good in both dry and wet braking and Good in both dry and wet handling and hydroplaning. The Neo Gen also received high marks for noise, ride comfort and rolling resistance, scoring Very Good for all categories. The Neo Gen was also one of the most affordable tires tested. Because of the Neo Gen's balance of dry and wet performance, and ride comfort, the editors recommended it as one of their top picks.
i had some nt555 on my last car....... great tire....... but horrible wet traction
i had 205/40/18 and the sidewill blew out within 3 days
a side wall bubble is dangerous.. make sure if you plan on driving on it for a period of time to keep you tire pressure perfect if not a bit lower then the factory suggest.. my wife had a small bubble and over inflated a few 5 PSI and blew it out on the highway 10miles later.. you never know when they are going to blow so try to get a new tire ASAP..
