sorry for the long post, please help me wiht my choice.

 

BMC95TA, i have a set of OEM Y2K's and i went with NT 555 275 35 18. I assume you have 18 x 9.5. I wanted to go 285 or 295 but even with the 275 they rub a little. I had to get spacers. I highly recomemend the NT 555. I got about 26K out of my last set. Not just highway miles either. I auto x, many drag strip passes, and countless street races. You also cant beat the price. I hope this helps.

Hey Tony,
Thanks for the reply , the nitto's were right up there with my top choices, along witht the bridgestones, but I was unsure becasue I had heard that the nittos had bad tread life. What kind of spacers did you have to get? Thanks

 

anyone else have an opinion?
