Default Any Comments or Remarks about Nitto's NT 450?

They are competively priced at $62 each at Tires.com for 205-50-15. I don't like the Azeniz cause where I live it rains like cats and dogs. Any info? Thanks

I think most people prefer the Kumho Ecsta 712 over the Nitto (pretty old tire at this point), but the azenis are fine in the rain accordinding to most people who have them.

i sell them and to let you now if you are looking for a performance oriented tire, you wont like them, if you just want a decent looking, okay driving tire for getting around, go for it.

I don't know anyone that's been happy with the Nt 450. Give the kumho a shot. I have them and they are pretty good in the rain.

DO NOT get them if you're looking for even the smallest amount of performance from them. My friend has had these tyres on his S14 for about 4yrs now b/c the things won't wear out - even w/ lots of drifting and burn outs. Actually, that's all they're good for

Dam, they are that bad huh? It was either the Nitto nt-450 or the Pirelli P7000. Maybe I'll look into the ***-Ho's. They sound like a Mickey Mouse tire!! I want some "best bang for the buck tire"

the tires are pretty good; however, the sidewall's are very very thin. this means if the air pressure in your tires is low.... be prepared to buy some new ones.
