Reversing NT-01's ?

[Yellow Iron]

Has anyone reversed there Nitto NT 01's? I have 4 events on mine and would like to flip them for better wear. There not directional like the 555's, they just have a inside and outside on the sidewall. When on the car the tread direction is different from one side to the other. My directional tread is pretty much gone anyway. I just have the two wear grooves running down the center only.

Marv:

The right side inners will wear almost as much (but not quite) as your left outers. So, with proper rotation, your tires should wear relatively evenly?

If you have not been rotating on a regular basis, then flipping the tires on the rim would be fine. It's just that you will lose wet handling on them? Wait, they don't have wet handling!? :idea: :lol:

I say go for it! :thumbsup: :coolman: :beer:

I have reversed them and found the performance easily justifys the loss of wet performance...oh wait, they don't have wet handling...

Makes for a decent set of throw aways for practice.
