Ok guys, i have a tire question.

Long time lurker, first time poster lol.

I've searched the forums by the way, and cant find a direct comparison for the 2 i'd like opinions on. I am buying 4 tires this week, and im not sure what i should go with. I either want Goodyear Eagle GT's, or Nitto NT555s. Difference in price is not a concern since im getting them both pretty much at cost there is little in the pricing between the two.

I'm sticking with the stock size, 245/45/17, and they are going on a 2002 GT. Anyone have any opinions between the two to sway me one way or the other? Every comparison ive found has compared the Nittos with the Goodyear Eagle F1's or something, not the new GT's. Anyways, let's hear the opinions...View attachment 147480

Yea, it's my DD and i dont have too many plans for it. I have a 91 coupe to play around and severely beat lol. This one, aside from a CAI and an offroad H to Flowmasters, is gonna stay stock for a while until i can buy myself a new 5.0

+1 for Nitto NT555

Best tires I ever had were the BFG's but those were DR's
