Default Where to buy NITTO'S

Since i am not going to waste my time anymore this coming summer with crappy street radials,i decided to put my power to the ground with a pair of NITTO'S on my stock 94 GT rims.The headaches of spinning have got the best of me and so are the crappy times.I see that everyone using these are very pleased with the performence so can anyone in Pa. or wherever guide me to a place where i can get these at compeitive prices?And i also take it that the ones i am looking for are the NT-555R 245/50/r16.Thanks for the advice in advance.Man i cant believe i waited this long to make a simple but smart move.

here's a place to start $139.95 + shipping

http://www.steeda.com/store/-catalog/nitto555r.htm

You will get about 14,000 mile out of those tires if you don't do burnouts. But if you are using for the strip I would find a different tire for the street. I use the Firestone Firehawks SZ50 EP $163 for the street.
Others have found the Bridgestone Potenzas S-03 pole $190 and the Kumho Ecsta MX $125 are good street tires as well. The Nitto's are terrible in the rain and foul weather.

I have the Kumho MXs and I almost got the Nitto 555s. The Kumhos are AWESOME! Just look at my thread in this same forum.

The Nittos suck, no they dont hook at the track, the best part is the looks on them thats it.
