Nitto 555 G2 tires Update
Well, it’s been several weeks since I began riding on these Nitto 555 G2 tires. As I said earlier, at first I was skeptical that they would be as good as the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires they replaced. I will say, these tires are great. They handle extremely well, on wet and dry roads. I am also very pleased at how quiet they are, noticeably quieter than the Michelins. I have had a couple of times that I had to make a sudden stop, no problems at all.
I really look forward to driving on nice curvy roads because the car feels like it’s on rails with these tires.
I might also add, these tires really look good too.
I have talked these Nittos up to several other Mustang drivers. A couple of them said they will seriously consider them when they buy again.

The G2's on the other hand have a 320 treadware rating and no mileage warranty..
At any rate, I'd like to find out how the G2's stack up in comparison with some of their competitors such as the BFG g-force comp 2 A/S especially that the BFG's are offered at a lower price with a higher treadware rating and also include a 45k mile treadware warranty..

No way will you ever remember this but we sure would like to hear an update at the 50% mark of the tires tread life. If still no issues with noise or tramlining this tire would certainly be worthy of consideration.
Far too many reviews rate new tires very well. Let's face it, replacing anything old and worn out is an improvement. It's what happens after two years and 50% of the tread life are gone that matter just as much.
