    Default Nitto NT 450 275/50/17

    Anyone using this tire? Only one I could find in this size.

    Pay now or pay when it comes home on a flatbed. Sometimes both. Part of the game.

    I'm using them. Tread is almost gone, but not sure what tire to go after next. Might get another set?
    They came with the truck, I've only had them for about a year. Work fine on the street and in rain. The price and fact there aren't many 17" tires is why I'll probably get another set.

    I'm on my second set, they perform adequate for the price, and have a really good looking profile with the R/T wheels.

    Rev limiter? that's what valve springs are for!

    Awesome, thanks. I just need something in the rear to drive around on, itll never see rain.

    I drove 120 Miles in the pouring rain with all 4 looking like this, hydroplaning was a non-issue.



    That being said even with brand new tires, if the pavement is damp they have really poor traction under acceleration, stock motor with 4.56's roasts them through 1st and 2nd from a stop. Other than that they're a great tire.

    Well my current Falkens have one good burnout left in them, if Im lucky. I decided to plate my truck this year so I hope to drive it quite a bit. The Falkens are borderline unsafe

    I've got those tires on my truck. About 4-5k on them and they still look new... course I've only done 10-12 burnouts so far

    I have those and am on my second set so I like them. We get plenty of rain down here and I have no issues.
