I'll probably be tire shopping over the summer, does anyone have any experience with this tire?

Thanks!

Default Nitto's in general are good tires.

I run 555's 225/40/18 on their second summer. Been very pleased with them.

Default The neo is a very good tire.

I have a set on my eclipse and they seem to be a bit better then the 555's I had with much better wear so far.

It is a good tire. I'd still go with Ecsta MX's though.
