The New 'NEO GEN' From NITTO Tires!!!
The New NITTO 'Neo Gen'!
http://www.nittotire.com/tires_neogen.asp
According to the website, the tire is offered in the following specs:
*205/50 R16 91V 10 24.07 8.07 5.5-(6.5)-7.5 1356 @ 50
*205/45 R16 87V 10 23.26 8.07 6.5-(7.0)-7.5 1201 @ 50
*205/40 R16 83V 10 22.46 8.07 7.0-(7.5)-8.0 1074 @ 50
*205/40 ZR17 84W 10 23.46 8.07 7.0-(7.5)-8.0 1102 @50
*215/45 ZR17 87W 10 24.62 8.46 (7.0)-8.0 1201 @ 44
*215/40 ZR17 87W 10 23.77 8.46 7.0-(7.5)-8.5 1201 @ 50
*225/45 ZR17 94W 10 24.97 8.86 7.0-(7.5)-8.5 1477 @ 50
*205/40 ZR18 86W 10 24.46 8.07 7.0-(7.5)-8.0 1168 @ 50
*215/40 ZR18 89W 10 24.77 8.46 7.0-(7.5)-8.5 1279 @ 50
*215/35 ZR18 84W 10 23.93 8.46 7.0-(7.5)-8.0 1102 @ 50
*225/40 ZR18 92W 10 25.09 8.86 7.5-(8.0)-9.0 1389 @ 50
*215/35 ZR19 85W 10 24.93 8.46 7.0-(7.5)-8.0 1135 @ 50
As you can see, there is NO listing for my sizes: 245/35/19 & 275/35/19 respectively. I've sent them an email regarding upcoming larger fitments. The NT555 has always been a great 'bang4thebuck', but this tire looks even more promising!

Its a great tire thats been out for some time already. You wont see this in any very large fitments. Its a tire to replace the old 450, and compete directly against the Yokohama Parada. This tire will be mostly compact import sizing only.

I too though, "Hmmmm, I know the Greddy Car has to be running 19's?" Deceptive marketing is a B1tch.
Still, they look nicely creative and functional, with exceptional treadwear for a Z rated tire.

no you cant, and with staggered setups that means NO rotation at all. But I think the neo-gen has a different compound on the inside and outside to accomodate cars with negative camber... i.e. cars with lowering springs but no camber adjustments. I think I saw one of their ads talking about that. If thats the case and these tires provide good grip then they might be quite innovative indeed and needless to say, awesome.
