Hey guys just bought some Nitto NT 450 for the Stang. I got the 245/50-16s since the Nittos run a shade narrower than most I figured they would fill the wheel well nicely. Well now that the tires are closer to the stock size(I had 225/50-16s before) I lost the little bit of advantage the shorter tires gave me since i still have the 2.73s in the car. Anyway it just gave me enough reason to order some gears which will be here soon.
My question is: How do you guys like the Nittos? They seem to squeel like hard tires. Will they get better with a few miles?
