Nitto Neo Gen tire received second place overall with the editors commenting that the Nitto Neo Gen had basically tied with first place. Fifteen tires from several tire manufacturers were tested in nine categories, mainly focusing on dry handling and traction, wet handling and traction, and ride comfort. All tires in the test were sized 225/40R18. All tires were tested using an Audi A3 3.2 on a closed test course. This data was combined with results from independent tread-wear testing which evaluated tread wear up to 12,000 miles. The Nitto Neo Gen had a strong showing in all tests. The Neo Gen received a ranking of Very Good in both dry and wet braking and Good in both dry and wet handling and hydroplaning. The Neo Gen also received high marks for noise, ride comfort and rolling resistance, scoring Very Good for all categories. The Neo Gen was also one of the most affordable tires tested. Because of the Neo Gen's balance of dry and wet performance, and ride comfort, the editors recommended it as one of their top picks.

I have this tire from discount and so far I've been really impressed. Good ride, quiet, and its done everything I've asked performance wise.

I have Nitto 555's and I love them. Best tires I've ever owned.

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.

i had some nt555 on my last car....... great tire....... but horrible wet traction

a side wall bubble is dangerous.. make sure if you plan on driving on it for a period of time to keep you tire pressure perfect if not a bit lower then the factory suggest.. my wife had a small bubble and over inflated a few 5 PSI and blew it out on the highway 10miles later.. you never know when they are going to blow so try to get a new tire ASAP..
