Now available via the Delticom AG group sites (I don't like this company, but they do have some tyres)

It's a made-in-Japan tyre and Nitto are part of the Toyo group.

They've been a popular choice in the USA for a while.

I don't see them on the delticom UK sites (mytyres et al) yet but they may well land one day :-)

I've bought a set and they're scrubbing in atm.

Look like they will clear a decent amount of water, which is not that common in 'UHP' tyres. lol Only 15s and upwards, though. Boooooo

15" is the perfect size. :-)

I'm enjoying them.. they're heavier than an eco tyre and grip better from cold than my (albeit old) semis. I'd like them a bit softer.....

Need to do more driving... as usual.

I would like 15s if I could get hold of some lightweight options that aren't £1k+! lol

I want to get some decent 14s on the lightweight OEM rims I have, to replace the worn out NS-2Rs but not be so 'extreme', but the Michelin PE2s seem to be unobtainium at the moment and the rest are mostly 'eco' tyres... :/

Will look forward to future updates!
