Finally got some new tires

[72Duster440]

I spent some time looking for options on a 28x12 and ended up going with a Nitto 555R since they were about $75 less than the Mickey ET Streets in the same size. I was hoping to go more of a street tire, but I'm limited by the size of the wheel (17x11), but the Nittos appear less aggressive than the Mickey and should handle damp pavement better if I happen to get stuck driving on some.

Overall I think they fit perfectly. I'm trying to decide if I should go a little bigger up front now too or just leave the 215/45 there.

Looks great! Leave the fronts, the stance is damn near perfect.
Beautiful color too.

Couldn't have said it better myself!

I run a 215/45/17 on the front of my car and I thing 225/50/17 would probably be about perfect.

I think I might try a 225/something as my next tire, just to get a little more rubber. It's easy enough to crank the torsion bars slightly if I need a little more height.

So far they seem pretty good, they are a little less grippy than the ET Street SS I had before, but they look like they should have a better tread for road miles than the Mickeys did. And they were $75 a tire cheaper!!

Nice choice.
I have Nitto Neogen 245/40/18 on the back a d 225/45/17 on the fronts, and if yours are anything like mine they are fantastic on wet surfaces.

The difference of the 40’s on the back and 45’s on the front makes the distance from the rims to the ground look the same front to back.

These are directional so the wider rubber goes to the outside.
