I can't help you too much, Red Seal. I would suggest that you stay away from Nitto 450s, however. They're great tires for the money but they're not quiet . . . or at least not as quiet as the stock Toyo's.

I love my Nittos! I think I must be partially deaf because they are very quiet ride in the V Rated (I think they also have a Z...not sure). But I would buy Nittos over any other tire out there for the $.

I have just this week replaced the tires on my 2k SE with Michelin MXV4+'s. The ride is quieter and smoother, over the stock Toyos.

Same here, i love my NT-450's 17s. I read also they was ZR rated as well as V rated. The top speed on these tires is 168mph! Nice, I've done 140mph already and they stay on the road.

Can't beat the price on the NT-450 at $79 per tire. They are a little noisey but seem to have a little better grip than the stock Toyo. I have 17k on them now, they wear good and I have no complaints.
