Nitto NT555 G2 255/45R20 105W XL High Performance Tire

Nitto NT555 G2

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Summer weather traction
• High speed controllability
• Upgraded maneuvering ability

OVERVIEW

The Nitto NT555 G2 is a high performance summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

The tire promotes great summer weather traction. The tire’s high-stiffness silica compound and the ideal directional tread design work together to increase the dry and wet weather road gripping ability. The tread design’s optimal elements increase the grip on the road surface with additional biting edges, while the compound prevents heat build-up along the tread area. The tread’s circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning. These grooves channel water from below the footprint and boost the grip on wet road surfaces. This combination ensures the tire’s secure performing capability in all summer weather.

The model’s ideal tread design enhances the high speed controllability. The tread’s continuous center ribs closely follow the road surface and maintain the tire’s surface contact in summer. As a result, the tire upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver’s instructions, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The stronger construction manages to keep the optimal tire shape under the high speed pressure. This, along with the compound’s excellent heat resistance, enables the tire to securely perform at its greatest high speed capability and power, guaranteeing the driver’s full control over the vehicle during its high speed performance.

The NT555 G2 also improves its maneuvering capability. The tread design’s large tapered shoulder tread blocks boost the grip on the road surface during cornering. These tread blocks enhance the number of biting edges gripping the road surface while the tires are in motion, which increases the cornering and maneuvering safety. On the other hand, the high-stiffness silica compound manages to shorten the braking distance. It works together with the tread design to create friction between the tire and the road surface, which decreases the braking distance significantly. This allows the tire to securely perform in summer weather as it guarantees the tire’s heightened driving safety levels.
