  • NITTO 555R2 & G2 Differences. I use the R2 in summer and G2 in winter.
    The R2 is great for traction and does well for daily driving and at speed. Balance off nice and stay pretty decent as the tread wears down. I’ve got about 2k miles on these in the video. My last set lasted around 4200 summer miles.
    I’ve got about 1200 miles on the G2 as of this video post and they do well in dry and wet. Traction for a 1000hp vehicle at launch is a slight spin.

      Annoys me that instead of 9/32 tread, nitto makes them at 6/32 from their factory

    I run the 555r2 in 345 30r19 on my 750ish whp 19 mustang and it hooks decent. Heard alot of negatives about the 555g2 regular tire. Debating if I want to replace my front tires with these to match brands front to rear, right now the fronts are mps4s in 275 and they are good tire but getting old

      @@Madmaxxxx1984 I run project 6gr Five style wheels in 19x10 front and 19x11.5 rear and clear fine. I'm lowered 1inch front to back if it were low it be an issue. I clearanced the rear upper shock mounts by a very small amount because the tire touched slightly when the suspension cycles

      How well do these hook from a dig or 2nd? Have you tried 888rs? Thanks

    Those g2’s are trash if you’re asking for traction! You can see in one of my videos where I’m driving my brothers 430whp 95 gt it spins 1st and 2nd really hard, and in colder conditions it’ll spin almost all of 3rd from a 60mph roll. Never experienced the 555R2 so I can’t really give an opinion on those tires. How do you like the R2’s
