[markblurberry]

Wont be surprise with the performance of Nitto, altho I m not user but it is suppose to be Evo-trend higher end premium brand of tyre...well myself is a fan of ev0-Achilles..hehehe...and heard about Nitto about 2 months back...as for performance, I think should be ok, if not how to market as premium brand...as for actual price, would appreciate if zth members can share some indicative prices...

Here probably premium price but UK tyre review put then in Economy category same with the likes of Nexen, Maxxis, Neuton, Federal, GT Radial, Nankang, Archilles....

Yea it's sort of premium in malaysia because it its made in Japan. Btw I always thought that nitto is from Australia.

Anyways I've been quoted 2xx for 15", 3xx for 16", and 4xx for 17". Price wise pretty close to those high performance tyres e.g yokohama/toyo/gdyear

Who's bringing in nitto tires?

 

[pwhyze]

Quiksave USJ have them...not sure about others.

 

[vr2turbo]

In Japan seems it belongs to Toyo, so not sure if they are bringing it in....

Quicksave usj Leon. And keanhin lee @ jalan ipoh. Both same price as quoted by them. Another good one is nitto Invo but unfortunately only big sizes available.. Minimum 225 width 17".. Price is pretty high though. And the thread looks like alien space ship language

Nitto is American brand.....I used to buy Turbo/Sportcompactcar/Import tuner magazines since 15 years ago.....just the neogen was manufactured by Toyo factory Japan. And the INVO has been in the market over a decade ago. Last I went to S'pore in 2011, one tyre shop in Paya Ubi sells varieties of nittos. I think after12 or samurai in Sunway also selling them, but very limited.
