Nitto NT555 G2, 265 /35 R22 102W XL BSW
The Nitto NT555 G2: next-generation technology plus next-level performance equals one of the best ultra-high performance tires available.
Nitto NT555 G2 Tires
When the original Nitto NT555 rose to popularity in the ‘90s, it did so in large part because its performance backed up its aggressive look. Building on that foundation, the Nitto NT555 G2 tire is a summer tire for the modern sports car driver who wants breakneck performance in dry driving conditions without compromising wet handling or ride comfort.
Compared to the original NT555, the G2 lays down increased wet and dry traction combined with the contemporary street style to bring your sports coupe, high-powered sedan or muscle car into the modern age of performance.
With a street car legacy to maintain, the NT555 G2 is loaded with advanced features to help drivers upgrade their performance. For relentless dry grip and responsive cornering control, NT555 G2 tires are engineered with reinforced shoulder blocks. They also feature a silica-enhanced, high stiffness tread compound, maintaining rigidity for stellar handling in wet and dry conditions.
Other performance features of the Nitto NT555 G2 include:
- Commanding dry traction and straight-line stability via wide twin center ribs.
- Large tapered tread blocks further enhance dry traction and provide stability for incredible confidence during tight cornering maneuvers.
- Dependable handling, braking and acceleration performance in wet conditions provided by four wide circumferential grooves that rapidly expel water from the contact patch.
- Section width sizes 275mm and wider feature larger tread blocks, providing even more hook-up for staggered vehicles.
Nitto NT555 G2 Treadwear and Warranty
Yes, installing Nitto NT555 G2 tires offer powerful ultra-high performance traction. But they also provide long-lasting treadwear. That's because the NT555 G2 comes with a segment-leading UTQG treadwear grade of 320 for W-speed rated tires and a UTQG treadwear grade of 200 for all other speed ratings.
If you want to make sure your track day (or commute) doesn't come to a complete standstill, be sure to opt for coverage that performs as well as these Nittos do with our exclusive Certificates.
When your G2's are covered by Discount Tire's exclusive Certificates, you can head straight from the store to the track or strip in confidence knowing that they'll be covered down to 3/32” of wear. Plus, if you suffer a blowout on the road or track that can't be repaired, we'll provide you with a brand new replacement NT555 G2.
(You can add our Certificate coverage in the cart of your order.)
Whether you're trying to beef up your muscle car, dial in your tuner or flat-out get the most out of your performance machine, consider the Nitto NT555 G2.

Good looking tread pattern
3000GT
3rd set of these tires on two different sports cars. I keep purchasing these tires because they are a good product at a great price. I get approximately 30,000 miles before they need replacement. Not bad for a performance tire. The only negative is that they are terrible on. Snow. I know they're not made for snow, but I was hoping they would do a little better than what I have experienced. The traction is great on dry roads, and in the rain. So if you do not experience any snow in your area,, you will be fine.

My 2007 Mustang Saleen has had Pirelli, Toyo and now Nitto tires on it. Had previous Nitto NT55-275/35/20 on front. Got almost 50,000 miles out of them. So stayed with Nitto on the front. Decided to try Toyo 275/40/20 proxies on the back, had heard good things. Too much road noise wished I would have gone Nitto's around. Nitto in my opinion is a lot better tire out of the 3 for the money. Less road noise and cornering feel more confident.
