Has anyone tried this tire from Nitto? I have never liked their tires, but this one might be ok?

Here is a comparo to Toyo RA1 and Pirelli Corsa. Looks like its a decent tire similar to Yokohama DOT rubber.

After all what good is a tire without a perky breasted hostess? Thats typically my criteria in buying tires. ...Is there a Hoosier girl? biggrin.gif

my thoughts exactly. as for hoosier girls.... well, i'm thinking along the lines of a midwestern dirt track girl... my type!

hmm Lets see what tire has taken trophies at Nationals. Kumho V710 and Hoosier A3S05.
Which tire is used for mostof the Spec series Spec Miata uses Toyo RA-1

Isn't that the fag from speed channel? Cameron sumpin.

The NT01 was recently released. Wonder how the V710 or A3S05 would hold up in comparison to NT01 on the track? The Nitto looks like a better track alternative to the RA1.

I'l give you that one it IS new. I do know that the RA-1 continues to have good grip till the cords show. it stands up to alot of abuse. Probably comperable.

Probably a really good tire. Seems they like to market to the ricer crowd. Can't say I ever seen anyone win anything on a nitto tire.
