NT555 G2. Does your high-powered Mustang ever feel loose or unstable during rapid acceleration or when taking a corner at speed? If so, it may not be your suspension, like you think, it could be your tires. Poor tire traction can greatly affect the handling performance of your Mustang. If you find yourself in this scenario you should invest in a set of Nitto's NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Summer Tires. NT555 G2 Tires were engineered especially for spirited drivers that demand excellent traction in both wet and dry driving conditions.
Directional Tread Pattern. The Nitto NT555 G2 features multiple tread innovations that make it a best-in-class performance tire. Twin center ribs provide better dry traction and straight-line stability. Large tapered blocks increase grip and cornering stability, and circumferential grooves aid in water evacuation and wet handling.
High-Silica Compound. Nitto NT555 G2 Tires are made using a proprietary high-silica compound. Nitto uses a special bonding agent during their manufacturing process to increase the interaction between the base compound elements to further reinforce their chemical bonds. This specialized bonding agent helps create a tire with a higher compound stiffness which results in better cornering performance in both wet and dry conditions.
Application. The NITTO NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Tire is designed for all 1979-2019 Ford Mustangs.
NOTE: This is a high-performance tire intended for use during summer months or warm temperatures only. Use during cold weather will greatly reduce performance, traction and handling, and greatly increase stopping distance. If using this tire in a drag or track environment during cold weather, we strongly recommend performing a pre-run burnout to nominalize the tread compound's temperature.
Mounting & Balancing: AmericanMuscle offers professional mounting and balancing on all wheels and tires when purchased together on the same order for an additional fee. This will allow you to swap out your old wheels for your new set when they arrive. We even offer Free Nitrogen tire fill.
State of the Art On-Site Tire Facility
Scratch-Free Mounting Process
Environmentally Friendly, Lead Free Wheel Weights
Free Optional Nitrogen Tire Fill
1 to 2 Business Day Turn Around Time on Most Orders
Free Nitrogen Fill! AmericanMuscle is pleased to offer FREE optional nitrogen fill on wheels and tires that are purchased together on the same order. Filling your high performance tires with nitrogen has many benefits including:
Improves Fuel Economy
Reduced Weight
Maintaining Constant Tire Pressure throughout the Year
Prevents Corrosion to Preserve Wheel and Tire Life
The NITTO NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Tire and the Sumitomo High Performance HTR Z III Tire will offer the lowest road noise of the tires we carry.
Are these super sticky like a drag radial or comparable to the P zeros that came on my 2014 mustang? Thanks
The NITTO NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Tire is a high performance summer tire, similar to a Pirelli P Zero tire, though offering more traction, and a world above the Pirelli P Zero Nero all season tire. These will not have the ultra soft, fast wearing compound of a drag radial.
Currently have the stock setup 235/50R/I8. Will 255/45R/18 in the front and 275/40R/18 in the rear fit? Thanks!
Depending on the size wheel you have on your Mustang, you will be able to run the bigger tire size. Unfortunately, since we do not know yourexact wheel size, we are not able to confirm if it will fit. I would recommend calling or chatting in so we can discuss this, that way we can get you the correct information for your set up.
I would like a tire with a more beefy look. I currently have the Pzero 255/40/19 on my 2015 eco boost PP. I am curious as to what size would fit my wheel and give a nice and beefy look.
This would depend on what size your wheels are as well as other factors. Please reach out directly to our customer service department either by giving us a call at 1-877-887-1105 or by chatting in with our live support! We would be glad to help you!
A 315/35R20 NITTO NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Tire will require a wheel with a width between 10.5" and 12". A 10" wide wheel will be smaller than Nitto's approved safe wheel size.
With the NITTO NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Tire for a 275/40R19 - Nitto suggests between a 9-11" wide wheel, so you should have no issues mounting the 275s to your 19x9 wheel.
Bought these tires 275/40R19 and they hook up pretty well, as good or even better than the P Zeros. Road noise is maybe a little more noticeable but not much from the P Zero . OVERALL an amazing tire, in dry and wet. Without a doubt will buy these again.
Review from NITTO NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Tire - 245/45R17 (79-04 All)
Best tire for this rim size
I have the stock 02 GT rims and put the stock 245/45/r17 on all 4 (no tire bulge). These tires are great in the rain, which is exactly what I wanted to improve (daily driver).
Review from NITTO NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Tire - 275/35R20 (05-19 All)
-Good- tire
It's a good tire, don't get me wrong. But I don't think its necessarily the greatest one on the market. Clearly, I mean look at the price. Anyway, like other reviews suggest as will mine, this is not a good cold tire. You need some heat in these puppies before they really start to grip. Otherwise their great! They also tackle rain and hydroplaning with ease. I bought these 275's to go in the front of my 2006 Mustang GT, and with a lowered suspension (Ford performance lowering springs), these things rub just a little little tiny bit on the inner fender. Will have to roll your fenders on the inside just a bit. Hope this helped!
These tires are awesome! Had moderate to heavy rain at times here in my city the past few weeks and not once did I feel insecure driving. These tires also grip way better than expected for them not being slicks. Highly recommend. Had bought the regular NT555’s for my mustang before I got this SRT and in my opinion, the G2’s hold up better than those. (Had a 2014 Mustang 5.0 before)
These things look and feel aggressive. However, like other reviews, they DO NOT like the cold. Yes they are summer tires so you're probably like "duhh", but just fyi. I spun out on an on-ramp in 3rd gear going 30 mph because they weren't warm yet. Just got them so don't really know what 'warm' feels like, still feeling out their limits. But I think as soon as summer hits, these are gonna be real fun for backroads!
Aggressive Look, yet refined, appears to be great for moving water on the road, which is the primary reason for my selection of these tires with the Florida rain
I LOVE my new Nittos. So much better than the Yokohamas I had. They ride smoother, handle better, are quieter and GRIP fa better. Even in wet conditions. I couldn't be happier.
Review from NITTO NT555 G2 Ultra High Performance Tire - 315/35R17 (79-19 All)
Great tires
I love these tires they are awesome on dry pavement and in the wet. Grip well from a hard launch with an SN95 pushing 325 to the tires with 4.10 rear gears. I would definitely buy these again from AM cause they got the best price.
So far I have discovered these tires grip considerably better than my previous set of the same width (285). My old set I couldn't even roll on the throttle in second with out breaking the tires loose. The Nitto's however seem to hold the road pretty good. Cant drop the hammer in first with no wheel spin but it will catch second well and take off! Huge difference over the NanKang (Chinese brand lol) tires that came on the car when I baught it. The car is an 08 GT500 CandL cold air intake, 2.6in pulley and tune. 600 ish hp at the crank.
Great tires for summer traction as well as making sure you don't slide out when the rain comes, as it recently started where I live. Loved these tires from day one, still run them, and plan to get a pair for the front in 245
I got 305/20" for the rears in my Roush charged '16 GT. The wet grip is surprisingly great, drive daily without any problems and full confidence (snow is a no go though), but not enough dry grip. I spin all the way through first, second, and a bit into third. And don't even think about trying to launch. With such little sidewall it's quite a rough ride too. The tire does look mean though.
