So far my NT05s have treated me really well. Between highway rips, some track usage, sketchy rain, a 1500 mile trip, and everything in between they're a perfectly versatile tire for both daily driving and having some fun on the side. They aren't loud and are pretty nice for highway driving. My commute is only about 20 miles one way and mostly highway, and going almost or above 80mph most of the way they never give me any trouble. They're perfect for that budget ripper that you like to street cruise as well.

Hook good on my 06 FBO ported 300c will buy again
Best tire I ever had. Use them in my daily and also use them for track days. Perfect handling during dry season also on rainy days. Haven't used them in winter but we had some cold days and work perfect. On track day work perfect the nt05 sticks and holds perfect I'm sure it can take more power (my car is at ~500whp). Will be buying some more soon will give this tire a 10/10 any day.
Great tires!! A bid noisy at higher speeds.
excellent price with offers too , i love to shop with simple tire
These tires are good to have for the track as they have twice the life of slicks but also have sticky properties when they get warm like a slick. I recently used them at a track event and then had to leave suddenly and I drove home (about 100 miles) on them right off the track and the were quiet and ran well. Since they are DOT certified it is fine to do that on a nice day. Worth the price and will likely stay with these for some time.
Grip is fantastic and has now issues with a 450whp corvette. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great tire
Tires are a bid too noise on higher speeds
