Tires NITTO or RIKEN
I’ve ran g2’s since 2014ish. I’ll never own another tire. They perform well, last up to and OVER the 60k warranty, ride well and look great. I recommend them to everyone.
Rikens are fine. They're quite a soft tyre, probably because like you said Michelin make them butbthat does meant the grip is decent.
I run ridge grapplers. They do pretty good in Colorado’s snow.
I have Nitto tires and they're great. I drive a lot of rural roads, gravel/sad crumbling asphalt. They've held up. They haven't even gone low in the cold weather at all.
I've had geolanders in the past too and they were also really nice. But the Nittos a slightly less expensive.
Love my Nittos. Much quieter and ride much more like an all season on the highway than Falkens. They’ve been great in the desert, during rain storms, and ice. No change in gas mileage either where I saw a pretty large dip with Wildpeaks.
I put the nitto on 2 weeks ago and very happy with them. Handled a small snow great.
I have a new set of the recon grapplers and they preform very well for what I do.
I have the nittos NT555 G2s on my mustang and they have lasted about 30k miles. But I wouldn't call them ultra high performance by any stretch of the word.
NT05 isn't great. And I hate the 555's - the orig were cheap and OK but the G2 is worse, you can do better with Firestone Indy 500's or Continental ExtremeContact both are about 300TW.
They are great off road and absolutely terrifying in the rain. Would not recommend.
