Opinions on Nitto NT450

[john31s]

Does anyone on here have any experice with these tires! I know everyone here love the Nitto 555's but they don't come in the size I want. I'm looking for 255/50r17 and 275/50r17 because their 27 inches tall. The only other tires I can find in this size are Falken Ziex S/TZ-01. Any options on these? I'm leaning toward the Nitto's.

Nitto NT450's are a really old tire design FWW. I had them 13-14 years ago when they first came out! I would think any other tire would be newer technology.

Really, only one opinion? I guess my question is less how are Nitto nt450's but more are they better than the Falkens?

Justin,
What did you think of the tires when you had them? I am kinda of in a bind because I want a 27 inch tall tire and this is the only size ican find which will get me their.

I have only seen them on trucks. I'm guessing not many people here have tried these tires. Why do you want a 27" tire? Just for looks? Your car looks like it doesn't need a tire that tall.

Back then i thought they were cheap and looked cool. Now I think they are cheap and out-dated. Honestly your tire size has me confused. I would alter your tire size and go with something different.

Tire availability was the main reason I went up to 18's. A 285/40/18 is almost exactly 27" tall and there are a ton of tire options in it. Sorry I'm sure not really what you were after, just thought I would throw it out there...

Ok thanks for the input. I'm just going to go with another size.
