Surprising Traction and Handling Response for Dodge Charger R/T AWD. A New Customer for Nitto
Originally my car was running Goodyears just because they were a brand the family has been running (including myself) for years. But this past summer season was coming to an end and along with it a tire change. I was planning on going with the tried and true again until one friend mentioned I should try some different tire brands out to see how they compare. So I parked the car in the garage and started on my journey to research for the best tires that would fit my driving style. From Falken to Toyo, Continental to Michelin, I found any information on the companies that I could. Then I found out about Nitto Tires, a branch company of Toyo (independently running from Toyo). They got their foothold by going to competitors & attending car enthusiast and asking what they wanted from a tire. Through listening to the intended customers, they honed their tires to meet these expectations. So I decided to give them a try and I have to say it was an amazing decision. Right in the beginning i noticed that i didnt have as much slip as what I used to have from Goodyear. So I put another 1000 miles on the tires to see if there would be any fade in the grip. To my surprise, I didn't feel any initial drop off. I was able to take corners a little faster, the rear end didn't want to step out from behind as often, and no spinning the rear wheels on take off. In summary, if you are looking for a new tire brand to try out for you project car, muscle car, or any performance oriented daily driver, the best suggestion would be to try some Nitto's.
