Default Nitto 555

I have a set on my 19s now and jsut notice the other day when I was driving through some heavy rains on the freeway, seems like I didnt have control of my car and sometimes.

This is my 3rd set of Nittos that I have had on differnt cars. Does anyone else have this problem with their NIttos?

check the sidewalls. Mine's was punctured... Had a big bump all around. It was on the inside. Luckily I had a camber problem and was about to get the tires flipped inside out.

they wear quickly,... the inside thread is probably worn...

just that last strip on the very inside despite the rest of the tire being thick is enough to cause it to be loose in rain,... hate it.
