Ordered NITTO's NT01s a few weeks ago. Had to toss my 17x10.5s wheels since it is getting worse by the day to find large new style tires for 17 in wheels. Anyway got 18x10.5 AFS wheels to match my front 2003 wheels (17x9s). Will run 315s on the rear and 275s on the front.
Tired of spin city on my GS D3s, and went with the NT01 because of tire softness (ie.. I put little miles on my cobra now) and stronger side walls than drag radials since these will be for the street. I have had too many scary experiences with drag radials on the street in corners, get too loose for me.
I did a search and found little info on anyone running these tires. But since they seem to be a good road course tire and treadware is rated 100 so they should grip well. We will see.
Dont care much about rain usage, car is not a daily driver now. So she stays in the garage on rainy days.She gets low miles on her now, so 100 treadware is not an issue for me.
I will post my opinion once they arrive next week. The NT01s were on back order for the 315s, so had to wait for NITTO to crank out another batch at the end of Sept
Ping me if anyone is in Austin, TX and looking for a deal on 315 GS D3s or 285 GS D3s or 255 GS D3s all for 17 inch wheels.
