Pirelli's vs. Nitto's

I just wanted to get some opinions on the Pirelli tire vs. the new Nitto 420. I've recently ordered my 22's and not only want a good looking tire but also a good handeling tire. Any input appreciated.

i have the nitto 420s and i think that they handle great! of course that's relative to the 17" stockies i had on for the first 300 miles of owning my 300. i've never sat in a 300 with the pirelli's so i couldn't give you a side-by-side comparison. i've only had the tires for about 400 miles but so far i love them. i'm sure that you'll be happy with either choice.

Can't comment on Pirelli's either, but I've had 20" Nitto's on my 300C AWD for the past 3 weeks ... LOVE THEM - especially compared to the stock 18" tires. Great handling, holds the road very well.

Just installed my FZ6's with Nitto 420's on Tuesday, so far so good. I can def. tell the difference from the stock 18's w/Conti's. I can "feel" the road much better, more vibrations from the road and the car - It's driving ZEN!
