I've been shopping around for some new 305/30R19 R compound tires. I found a good deal on Nitto NT01's at $368 a tire and was about to pull the trigger. From what I understand, these seem to give you the best value for your dollar in terms of longevity and still provide good grip.
However, I remember reading on another forum that people who were purchasing the Michelin Sport Cup 2 in the NO Porsche spec with the 102Y load index were getting almost twice the service life out of them than the lessor expensive 98Y load index. Well I just found some NO Porsche spec tires for only $5 more per tire than the Nittos. I would have to pay tax on the Michelin tires vs. the Nitto's, but still a great deal considering. I just don't know how much better they will wear compared to the Nittos.
Has anyone here ran the Porsche spec tire? Any advice on the NT01's? I wanted to support TMO by using Tire Rack, but they just didn't have what I was looking for...
Thanks!
