I am leaning towards the Nitto 555's (235/45/17), I have the 450's (225/50/17) and have been pretty happy (I pulled a 2K2 with stock Michelins off the line) but the 555 seem to be geared more towards what I am looking for, and the contact will be wider with the new size.

I am not dead set on these if someone can give me a suggestion on another brand that would cost the same, I looked up BF Goodrich and with shipping came out to be about 170 each, where as the Nitto's are 117, can anyone give me feed back?

The HTR's I am nervous about because the Tire Rack guy said for my goals that was not the tire for me, but I trust the exprience of those on the org. more than him, so I am still open to those who have exprienced either.
Not to threadjack, but nittos suck, period. 450, 555, 555R, they all blow.

So the Sumitomo HTRs are my best bet?
