    Nitto 555R

    Can I use these on all four or only on the back? I would to be able to rotate them front to back like usual.
    I was here before the server crashed.

    Thanks for the reply. Guess I didn't really look hard enough to see the G2. I was just going to order the standard R from my local Discount Tire store. That is a good point. The R has a V rating whereas the G2 has a W rating.

    I'm using the 555G2's and honestly I notice no difference. I love the 555's. They help greatly if caught out in a rain storm. Not that I go looking for them but where I live it can rain at any time.

    love 'em.


    Great for my needs. I'm fixing to order a set for the Vert. If you live up north you might want an all season tire. They're rate as a summer use tire, they don't like temps below 30 degrees. Wet roads they have good traction.

    I went with the 555R and 96V rating. Grippy and zero complaints here.

    Nice choice of tires. I was supposed to go for Nitto but settled with the Toyo Country A/T terrain tires that went on sale in 4wheelonline.
