ive just picked up another 2015 GT and am curious (for a procharged daily driver) what is a better match - Nitto 555 G2 305/35/20 or MT Street Comp 305/35/20 ? I want great street traction and as long of mileage as I can find for getting about. It's a vert so I probably won't be at the track since they frown on no cage/no helmet thing, unfortunately .

I had a set of 275/40/19 555 G2's on my last Procharged GT performance pack and they seemed a huge upgrade over the stock Pirellis, but it's been over a year since I've been in the game and know zero about the MT lines. Any pluses or minuses either way in the same size?

Glad to be back!

I have the MT 305's and they don't provide very good traction for my car with tune only.

Thanks, Red.

I was hoping to hear great things about MT since LMR doesn't have 555's in the 305/35/20 but they do have MT in that size. I'm planning on being there in the morning to check out their store.

I'll take all the feedback I can get from folks who have either type of tire.

I am tune only Auto and they don't hold very well.

I went with Nitto 555's , they should be here today so I guess I'll see soon enough. I have no experience with the Michelin 4's but are they similar ?
