Tires NITTO or RIKEN
nitto nt05. on my second set. best tire i’ve ever used for sure
Summer Tires I have found that Nitto NT555 G2 tires perform just as good as any of the tires you mentioned at half the cost.
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.
Speaking of cheap tires, I recently switched my tired old 41k mile Sumitomo ZIII with these $43 in 225/45 17 Riken raptor ZR and quite surprised how well they are. They grip as good as my ZIII did, way quieter and rain performance was fantastic. I was hesitant at first until I read reviews on tirerack phrasing these are great tires and they are definitely good. I also learned Riken is part of the Michelin tires company so its probably of decent build quality.
They have an aggressive tread pattern and I have driven them for the last 7 months in a variety of conditions from downpouring rain to hot, humid sun and they have not let me down yet. I push them hard on a cloverleaf on-ramps. They grip well and don't even chirp.
Nitto trail grapplers by far. Best tyre I’ve used
I went with the neo gens (205/40) they do stretch good however the sidewall is noticeable bigger than the 195/40 federal.
Looks like these are gonna be the top contender for my next set of tires. The Nitto Terra Grapplers I currently have are horrible in the rain.
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.
