Quinnster Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I have been going back and forth about the nitto NT420S or Toyo Tires Proxes ST II for a couple days now, anyone have personal experience with them or want to help me make up my mind. Two really good tires IMO, just need to find the better one performance wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinnster Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 OK then the most popular, (and only vote) is Nitto, and that's the one I was leaning more towards anyways. Do you guys think that it is possible that the Toyo ST II's would have better dirt, ice, snow, and rain traction than the nittos? Basically which one performs better in weather conditions and by how much? I'm pretty much set on the Nitto just want to look at this one last aspect.

ss04Flores Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 They are made by the same company (Toyo) but i think they design of the nitto gives it my vote. with that design you get good wet tracton and dry traction. best of all you can rotate them wherever you want. versus the toyo II you can only go back and forward unless you want to pay ever time to dismount.

Hey brother, I just order 2x 305/50/20s off Discount Tire Zone and I payed 147.00 each. They are alot better traction wise. I had the Proxies on the rear (305/50/20-I have a 2wd) and I would leave nice smokey tire marks anytime I'd stab her past half throttle. I just put the 420s on there a week ago and I'm replacing my trans cause it snapped the output shaft on the 1-2 shift. I believe the Nittos not giving had something to do with it.

Zath Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I had hancook ventus and just switched to Nitto 420s. I like them, I think they might be more quiet then the hancook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
