The tire sizes are 315/35/17 on 17x11 rims.

I had the BFG's for about 4k miles until I burned them out. A great tire for traction. When I had regular street tires, it was impossible to floor the car in 1st or 2nd without having wheel spin.

With the BFG's I would have wheel spin in 1st but at least now the car would move and when shifting into 2nd the speedometer would stay at the current speed instead of dropping down like 30 mph with the street tires.

The fitment was tight. It helps to have an adjustable panhard rod. I had to move the rear about 1/4" to the right. I also had to shave down the bump stops. Now the stops were not a problem when driving the car, only if you lift the car up by the body and let the rear hang down. The wheel and tire would scrape the stops. I also had to hammer in certain areas of the wheel well because of rubbing on tight turns and over certain bumps the tire would hit the fender.

My car is not lowered, so you guys that are lowered will have a problem.

Now about the Nitto's.

I just got these recently and had them mounted. I 1st noticed that the tire is narrower than the BFG's, they just fit into the wheel well. Unlike the BFG's which stuck out an additional 1/4" for the same size tire. Interesting????

They also line up even to the rim where the BGF's were wider than the rim.
Right now traction seems to be the same but I haven't really driven on them a lot. I heat treated the tires in with 2 days of driving (about 30 miles total) before lighting them up. So far so good. I want to put more miles and more had launches before I can give a good on honest review.

Both tires handle very good. I would have to give the Nitto's a slight gain in handling over the BFG's.

Driving in the rain even when the BFG's were bald I still had traction. Let me say this, I would drive around town not on the highway or thru deep puddles and I really did not go over 50-55 mph. I'm talking here getting to the store and stuff and no fooling around.

I haven't had a chance to try the Nitto's in the rain, but I suspect with the tires being new and all I won't have much of a problem.

I'll report back as I start putting more miles on the Nitto's.
