Hey everyone! Well today my 2013 CM S All4 hit the 33k on the OE Pirelli tires ( I hate them !! ) so needless to say my tires need to be replaced. Years ago I owed a Lexus IS300 that I ran nothing but Nitto tires on for as long as I owned it. My Lexus Loved the Neogen's, but I have some concerns about running them on Pepper ( my CM S ). This will only be run 8 months out of the year and then the winter tires go on. This has become my daily driver so I have been clocking about 250 miles a week. So I am asking you guys and gals if your running Nitto's and what you think of them.

 

Nitto Neogen ? On third set. Have 16's now, but have run two sets of 17's.

They have a wear rating of about 250 but due to weight of the MINI, its more like at 350-400.

Super grippy, lower profile = better handling, so dont bump up side wall height unless your looking for
smother ride, issues with potholes.
Excellent in the rain.
Is specifically designed for cars with camber.
No mounting / balancing issues.
Listed as all season, but I would personally consider them more of a 3 season tire.

Unfortunately Tire Rack doesn't or wont carry them when I looked three years ago, so purchased them from Discount Tire Direct, came out to less than 100 dollars per corner delivered to my door.

 

Yes the Nitto Neogen, I ran those on my is300 and it loved them. And after reading your post it looks like I will get better wear on them then on my Lexus. Out of curiosity what are you getting for mileage on a set?

 

I had Nitto envo (invo?) on my 06 STi. it was amazing. Loved them! super grippy! Makes you want to take on ramps too fast!

 

I put them on my sons 2003 Mustang GT. It has a good aftermarket suspension under it. They worked last year when he came with me to MOTD. Good tiers
