Yeah, if you ever see a snow white 'Vette in the parking lot at the Home Depot up on Capital Blvd it's probably me.

Curious, cause you're one of the few...

Care to elaborate?

I run 555rII's on a 700rwhp C5. Love them, and will replace them with the same tire when they wear out.

I run the 555Extremes up front and the 555R's out back on my Firehawk. NO complaints!

Default Nitto 555 Extreme DIRT CHEAP

I just pulled the trigger on a set of 4 each Nitto 555 Extreme for $553.96 w/ free shipping and a $100 Visa card.

Tired of the Goodyear Run Flat noise and lousy ride.

Net price is now $453.96 thru Sept. 3!!!!!

I can now afford to get rescued if I get a flat I can't plug.

Got to love DiscountTireDirect.
