What tire lasts longer?

[JP229]

M/T ET street or Nitto 555R's
I'm wanting to go 305/35/18
Ok so the tires will see more Street then track, and about 10k miles from now till next year and it is NOT my daily so no rain or wet conditions.
Ive heard the MT's hook better on both street and track but the nittos will last a little longer

i just had this conversation with my buddy at discount tire. i ordered the 305/35/18 NT555r's after the conversation. he said that the M/T's hook so good that it feels like you are gonna break something on the car. But he said that the NT555r hook great as well but give you much better daily driving performance. He said that on either you can expect no more than 8000 miles

Depends how many burnouts you plan on doing, and if they are crowd-pleasers or pussy burnouts

Thanks guys.
I went with 315/35/18s Nittos. I'm hoping they work pretty good. Gotta be better then my BFG g-force KDW's. Damn things dont even make noise when they spin and best i could do was a 2.1 60 feelin like they were about to break loose.

You will be 100% satisfied with the nitto drs. They hook great are really good in the rain and last long for a dr on the street when cold. And when heated at the track they hook even better.

+1 on the rain!

Had a pair on two previous Mustangs. Rain was never a concern. I never had to alter my driving style because of the rain while running Nittos.
