Tires
Hi guys. First off I want you to
know that discount tire directs ebay store is offering 100.00 off orders of 400.00 or more. With that being said the time has come to replace my KD's and I'm stuck. I've narrowed it down to either the PS2's or the NT05's. Now I realize the PS2's are twice the money of the NT05's. However, I've heard of Nittos flat spotting when they sit. Especially in colder temps. I've heard this becomes permanent. Now my KD's flat spot too but after a few miles they smooth out again. This matters quite a bit since I'm in Ma and the car sits in an unheated garage all winter.....and pretty much the rest of the year too. It only sees around 1200 miles per year and never in rain so drivability in bad weather doesn't matter. The type of driving it does see is early Sunday morning back roads with at least one good blast well into triple digits. I've also never actually worn out a set of tires (not due to lack if trying.) They just get hard, old, and I'm sure quite unsafe at speed. So that's why I'm stuck. I'm willing to pay extra for the PS2's if necessary. I'm just not sure they are. Has anyone owned both? If the nittos will perform as well and last as long I'd rather save some money as it's time to think about shocks too. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
