I going to buy tires this weekend and there some much out there. It is a toss up between the Dunlop 8000,Toyo, or the Nitto Extreme. I have a set of brand new 98 oem five spoke rims that I want to put the tires on. Anyone has any insight on any of these tires. There all just about the same price.

Thanks

 

nitto extremes, those are the tires i am going to put on the stock rims too. you should get 225/50/16's if you are going to drop the car

 

SMX:
I have the Dunlop SP 8000's on my 96 Maxima. Great tire. My size rims are 17X8's 235/45 ZR rated. Great on dry pavement and not that bad on wet pavement also. Fernando

 

Yes, that is the size I wanted to put on, and I am going to drop the car after the tires. I going the install the H&R.

One up for the Nitto.
Thanks

 

i love my nitto's nt-555 (245/40/18) front & rear.

 

That two up for the Nitto. Hey fcuco how much did you pay for your Dunlops 8000

 

I just bought
215/55WR-16 Kumho ECSTA Supra 712 tires from tirerack. They cost me $325 shipped.

Not sure if they are that great of a tire, but I only need them to pass inspection, last till august, and be use for winter tires.

 

I also purchased the Kumho ECSTA Supra 712, stock size, from TireRack for $330 including shipping. I've only had them for about 2 weeks; so far they seem to handle good but I haven't had the right weather to really test them. They received high ratings from TireRack for their wet and dry traction but are not recommened for winter (snow) driving. From what I have read they also wear pretty well. I think for the price, $75 per tire, they are hard to beat.

 

i got nitto 555 extreme i have them on my 17 momo and car handle great with my set-up on my max.

 

3 up for Nitto

 

3 up for Nitto. One Dunlop 8000. I hear about Kumho, I was told that there good tires.
