I have Nitto 555's and I love them. Best tires I've ever owned.
Owner reviews for tires
The MZ-01s have served me very well in every aspect (never have been stuck, and I'm in a notoriously awful snow car) but dry driving, where they are incredibly squirmy (and now, with worn tread, dangerous in the wet).
I had Nitto NeoGen's on my Volvo s40 and I loved them. They kept tread for almost 2 years and were sticky on dry roads. Not bad in wet either.
I am running Nitto 555's 235-35-19 I like them...Good traction wet or dry IMO.
I had a set of nitto's on my mk3 gti vr6.they were a great tire.
neogens are great i had a set on my is300 handle very good,softer sidewall compared to your bridgestones but noise extremely low,because of the softer sidewall handling might suffer a tad ,you might not notice it though.tire wear is awesome if you are lowered.inner treadpattern is designed for lowered cars to reduce wear.
I had them in 245 40 17 on my GTI. I thought they were great! A little loud, but they are cheap tires so I didnt care. I used them as track tires and they wear like iron, and grip very well once hot.

True dat. Contis ( ) + US spec ride height = GTI loses the armchair racer wars.
On a subject unrelated to load ratings, the Michelin HX MXM4 are, well, to be brutally honest - they are total rubbish. Expect to have borderline dangerous hydroplaning performance when the tires get to 6/32nds and less. Wet traction will be very poor when the tires get below 4/32nds or so.
