NITTO 555

I just had installed today NITTO 555 (255/45/18) at discount tire in National City. So far all the reviews I have read had been positive and I know some other members have these on their Mustangs. For anyone that has ran these tires before, what can I expect as far as how long they may last? I ended up getting about 37,000 miles from the "stock" BF Goodrich tires. If anyone has any input on what I can expect on these, please let me know. Thanks!

Im with Danny. I had the drags radials and I hated them. You had to heat them up just right. Not enough like a street tire. To much and they got greasy. My Brother
in law windviel has them though and swears by them. He likes the 555

Wow I got a little more than you out of my BFG's. I am going to be buying new tires when I return from deployment. I am split between the 55dw 2's.

Let me know what you think of them.

Thanks

I have had the Nitto NT555 for almost 1.5 years or 25,000 miles. They still have about 80-85% tread left on them. As a d/d tire with some spirted drives through the twisties, I have no complaints. I don't use the the rear tires at strip, so I don't know how well they stick. Remember! these are street radials and not drag radials.
