    nitto is probably your best tire quality wise pirreli is an ok tire, but the rubber is very hard so it last longer but you get a bad ride

    I vote for General Grabber UHPs--but no Nittos. All of their tires suck, IMHO. I have Sumitomo HTR Sport H/P. They are badass. BFG is also another good brand...

    why would you think Nittos suck? I have had no problem with mine and try to find a tire as good as a 555R somewhere else.

    BUMP on the UHP's I know a guy that runs them on 450hp S-10 Says they Hook
    I run the Yokohama, kinda pricey Look good and ride good, I don't have enough power to need to hook up. haha
