I ordered a new set of enkei J10 and have seen ads for the nitto neogen and was wondering if anybody had any experience with them, reccomend them??

 

My roommate has them on his turbo prelude sticky as hell! do ok in water but if you need traction these are a good buy imo

 

my friend has them and they sick good but they dont last long 5 to 7,000 miles

 

I'm running NeoGens right now and the best part about them is the camber wear on them. The hardened silica on the inner part really helps prevent camber wear. However, they wear out quick. I have 14,000 miles on them and they are just about to go bald, but what is expected of a 280 treadware tire? Also, the wet is sometimes fun, espcially from a dead stop.

Honestly, for the price, I don't think that I would get them again. I spent $10 per tire for some BFG KDW T/A for my other car and they just seem so much better. The Nittos were 215/35/18 and the BFGs were 235/40/18. Your decision, but I think the BFGs are a superior tire, in addition to leaving a cool "flame-like" tread pattern.

 

I wouldn't recommend them for someone in Northern California. The NeoGen is an all-season tire, designed for those willing to sacrifice performance in moderate to warm temperatures in order to be able to deal with snow and frigid cold. If you drive your car to mountain skiing areas, it might be okay, but if these tires are never going to see snow, you would be much better off with a summer tire. Good summer tires, even inexpensive ones, perform better than all-seasons, on dry pavement as well as in rain. If you're looking for value for your money as well as performance in a summer tire, your best choices are the Kumho SPT and Avon Tech M500 (both of which are a whole lot less money than the overpriced, but similar, BFG KDW).

 

i have them on my em1 there great for camber wear and handle pretty well but like everyone else is saying if you dont live where it snows your betta off to go with a summer tire but there are a pretty nice tire
