Any further feedback on these G2 Nittos?
and any comparison to the Continental ExtremeContact Sport?
Looking at the tire weight, the Conti's would seem to shave some rotational mass off the wheels.

I put almost no miles on the Cobra last yr but a bunch on the 05. Oddly enough, more miles I put on them the less they did it and after a short drive would smooth out completely. Never seen tires do that but pleased it's worked out in the long run. Happy enough with the tires leaning towards same tires / size for the new car.
Good to hear ZR.
Im still debating between the 2. G2 and the Conti..
Wish I liked the feel n ride from the Conti's but just not for me (for sure I'm the exception on this one).
Was also considering Firestone Firehawks but cupping is a genuine issue with them, even on the rear of some solid axle rides.
Rick, which Continentals have you driven on? The previous gen ExtremeContact DW definitely had a bit of a squishy sidewall compared to other max performance tires, but the current gen ExtremeContact Sport that came out a few years ago do have stiffer sidewalls in comparison. That's what I was running on my 17 last year and was pretty happy with them.

I put Nittos Gen 2 on my GT around August, I have no complaints, drives smooth and I no longer have over steer from my ok’d fire hawks

I’m not slow, I just like the way your bumper looks
For sure it was the earlier gen. Found they felt mushy and disconnected but road like make out of concrete. Since I run track wheels n tires, for the street I'm looking for reasonable performance, good ride for a performance tire and good traction under all summer conditions.
