I picked up my mugen rnr's a couple weeks ago and the previous owner had purchased new Nitto NT450's , 205-50-15 for them. When I get up to like 60K the tires are loudddd, I mean.. like real loud! I have them at 30psi all around, am I doing something wrong? Or are they just crappy tires. There very sticky and I can bomb around the country roads with them, but I dont know much about them, any help would be apprecaited..

 

Well they are not actually all that good compared to a lot of tires you can get for around the same price. I have never personally had them but I have heard stories. Make sure you have the tires going in the right directions and on the rims the right way. (ie. inside of tire on inside of rim)

 

may need to be balanced

 

whats loud about them, r u positive its the tire, from what ive heard the only nitto worth buying is the drag radial

 

thus why they have earned the name shitto 450's. a friend had these on his teg and hated every min of it.

 

I don't know about the 450's but my neo gens are incredible.
I've had pirellis, dunlops, goodyears and these kick *** in the wet and dry.
Don't know about snow, yet.

 

30 psi sounds low for that tire. Anyways, i've ran both the nitto 450 and 555. Tires are weak in my opinion, compared to yokohamas or bridgestones. But as far as the noise, dont know the surface ur driving on. I do know that the 450's do make a lot of noise but not enough to be concerned. Try balancing, then maybe wheel bearing?

 

potenza s03's

 

**** man i didnt even notice that, they should be at like 40 psi each that should be the problem

 

40 psi? on the side of the tire it says 35 max..

I have them at 35 and they are still loud.

 

I didnt refer to them as shitto's for no reason when i had some
