285/305 Nitto G2's installed - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Went ahead and pulled the trigger on the nitto G2's...im satisfied! Seems well planted and I needed a better everyday tire for my day commute.

They look quite a bit taller than the 285 supercars taken off.

That looks mean! Are you lowered?

SSEssence · 10-04-2018, 10:11 AM

New meats look great! I'll probably be switching to the G2s once my Invos are done

Nice choice! G2s have served me well

Thanks, SS AT yes I'm lowered on PFADT springs.

Also I will add that after 300 miles I'm very happy with my purchase, it's an excellent daily driver tire with good feedback for spirited street driving and they have been hooking well.

looks good...are your wheels 20x9 and 20x10?

acammer · 01-11-2019, 11:58 AM

I have G2's on a 20x9 square setup in a 285/35/20 setup. Same experience for me, great daily driver tire - good grip and wear for the money.

The full tire make and model is a Nitto NT555 G2. I believe G2 means second generation, the original NT555 predates this version. They still sell both at this point I believe.

What rim widths and offsets work to run squared up, like yours? Stock everything suspension on my 13 SS

20x9 +27mm backspacing. All stock suspension, not lowered at all. No clearance issues. A 20x10 at +35mm backspacing opens you up a little more for wider tires if you think you need that. I have 285/35's on my 20x9s and they work well - but are definitely the upper limiter of width, a 275 fits nicer, and a 295 would definitely be too big.
