rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author skyline_350gt - I purchased a set of these tires for my Infiniti g35 coupe in sizes 245/35/20 and 275/30/20. After 7,500 miles, the rear tires are completely bald! Gone, like an eraser in art class. Also, these tires are horrible in rain. Stay away from these...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author royalty0069 - I had my 555's for exactly 1 year. I'll give them all the credit on straight aways and light curves. Even good at high speed turns. Only thing is that this fabulous handling wears off after about 1 year. I was cruising along made a turn and the...

Nitto NT 555 Extreme Performance Passenger Performance Tire: NOT a high performance tire

Mon, 22 Mar 2004 20:15:51 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author turboed240 - These things are a joke. They DO always feel like they are going break loose going around corners at high speeds and are by no means a actual performance tire. The only reason I bough them is for the tread wear thinking they would be aggressive enough...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author cobramike - I replaced original equipment BFG Comp TA's on my '99 Cobra. I was disappointed with the grip. Even when amply warmed up these tires don't come close to the old Comp TA's. I was looking mostly at the wear rating thinking I'd get a longer tread life.....
