Sumitomo HTR Z Ultra High Performance Summer vs Nitto NT 555 Extreme Performance

[03kevo]

Whats the difference between the two in terms of:

1. Traction (Car is not a daily driver but driven all seasons)
2. Which one runs wider that the other
3. Treadwear.


Also, do you guys have these tires BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW NT with wider section than 305 for 17 inch rims?

Thanks

Thank you for the post. We would be happy to help you with your tire needs.

What vehicle application will the tires be going on? Where do you live? Which size specifically are you looking at?

The HTR-Z and Nitto NT555 Extreme Performance are both ultra high performance summer tires. Both models/brands run similar in overall size and have pretty equal wet and dry traction. In terms of wear, the HTR-Z carries a 160 tread wear (15K to 20K miles) and the NT555 carries a 300 tread wear (25K to 30K miles).

As far as the KDW NT goes, in 17", the widest option produced is 275/40-17. Here's the link with all the available sizes.
