I need to get new tires for my 98' GT. Here are what i am debating over.

Nitto 555
Bridgestone Potenzas
Falkens

If you guys know which is best or have another tire please say so.

I have a '98 GT also. I put 4 BFG Traction TA's (stock size) on it. Great tire so far. Excellent treadwear. Excellent wet weather traction. Excellent dry traction and no squeeling on the freeway on/off rampseither. Does chirp the tires alittle sometimes (kinda cool ). VERY pleased so far.

www.tirerack.com has them for $119 ea.

From your 3 listed, I'd prob go Nitto.

Nitto 555
I'm a big nitto fan, won't ever buy another brand. About to pick up another set of the drag radials, or possibly just the regular 555's at the end of this winter.
