Which is better? NT 555 Nittos or the Mickey Thompson ET streets? I know the nittos are streetable but are the MT's streetable as well?

Wow.... I feel retarded from reading this thread.

MT will hook better, Nitto will last longer. If your driving these a lot on the street go nitto. You should get about 12,000 miles out of them.

I bought a pair new MT from a forum member and he told me that those tires hook up better than any. and for the street you should get easily 25,000 miles out of them, plus if u got caught in the rain u could make it home in one piece. Never did ever get them mounted. Might want to call MT. Good Luck !!:popcorn2:

M/T drag radials will indeed hook better than Nitto. I've had both on my car. The down side is that M/T are terrible in the rain. Yes, I'm speaking from personal experience. The Nittos do a little better in wet weather, but are still not great. The Nittos use a slightly harder compound, so they will probably last longer on the street.

A brand that people often over look, and is the middle man between M/T's and Nittos is BFGoodrich.

Some people say they're actually better for the M6 cars since they have a more flexible sidewall.

i got nittos they hook up pretty good on the track and on the street and if you heat them up good they are amazing idk about the other ones but i have heard they are better but also the nittos are very good for everyday i got lazy and left mine one for 3 weeks after the track and they were fine on the street and in the rain

Hooking- MT ET's>BFG's>Nittos

Longer lasting- Nittos>BFG's>MT ET's

It's simple.

I've owned all 3. The MT ET's suck in the rain, but hook the best. The Nittos hook ok, but SUCK BALLS when cold and are horrible in cold weather (till warmed up). The BFG's are a mix of the two, they hook well, do good cold, do ok in the rain and will last around 7-8k miles.

The seach buttom is your friend, mmmmmk?
