Nitto NT555 G2 225/40 R18 92W

Features and Benefits: Summer weather traction; Enhanced controllability; High speed performance; Nitto NT555 G2 TiresThe Nitto NT555 G2 is a high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The tire promotes excellent summer weather performance. The high-stiffness silica compound and the directional tread design help to enhance... morethe dry and wet traction. Silica in the compound manages to optimize the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, while the tread firmly grips the road surface with extra biting edges. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint. This further improves the wet weather performance. The tread elements help to optimize the surface contact throughout the drive. The continuous center rib maintains the road contact in order to boost the steering responsiveness and driving stability. The shoulder block pattern and reinforced structure enhance the cornering ability with the use of extra biting edges. On the other hand, the directional pattern shortens the braking distance, by generating friction at the moment of braking. This guarantees the drivers better control over the vehicle at all times. The Nitto NT555 G2 also improves the high speed durability. The tire does not deform under the high speed pressure thanks to the reinforced internal structure. On the other hand, the silica compound does not allow pressure build-up across the tread area. This combination ensures the tires safer high speed driving experience. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
