Nitto Neogen tires?
for those XB's and TC's that have them...
how do you like them? wat time of driving do you do? hows the sidewall? hows teh noise? hows the treadwear? hows the grip?
im deciding on buying these tires but i cant find many reviews on these tires

I dont have the neogens, but I do have NItto 555s on my 19"s and am pretty happy with them. They are louder than stock, but Im sure that is mostly becuase of them being 19s. Handling is also much better over the stock yokos and tread wear seems fine although very tough to tell since they only have like 2K on them. I would reccomend them.

had them on my protege that i got rid of in Dec. Mine were 16" but very little road noise. Drove that car bout 40k on them. Cept for 2, I hit a curb doing bout 25 which blew a hole in the side wall, the other time i just brushed up against a curb parallel parking and a huge lump formed on the side. Decided to replace it just to be safe. Overall not bad though.

mmm i have yokohama AVS es100's
i dont think they are a good tire. yes they give more grip and a stiffer sidewall than my RE92's but
they provide a rough ride, they are noisy. not a really good street tire.
but overall i still give the tire a 6-7 overall rating
