The NT555 G2 is the next generation ultra high performance<br />
summer tyre designed with the performance driver in mind.<br />
With increased traction, handling and wet-braking capabilities,<br />
the NT555 G2 will get you off the line quickly, provide stability<br />
in the straights and confidence in the corners.<br />
Features & Benefits<br />
• High Stiffness and Silica Compound A special bonding agent<br />
increases the interaction between all the compound elements to<br />
reinforce bonds for higher compound rigidity during cornering,<br />
resulting in better handling capabilities in both wet and dry.<br />

ULTRA HIGH PERFORMANCE<br />
Performance, Comfort, Luxury.<br />
This ultra-high performance tyre refuses to compromise<br />
on performance, ride refinement, or quality.<br />
State-of-the-art computer engineering and digital audio<br />
testing equipment produced a tread pattern that reduces<br />
perceived road noise, provides excellent comfort,<br />
and delivers exceptional traction in both dry and wet<br />
conditions. The result - a tread pattern that is unique and<br />
functional.<br />
Features & Benefits<br />
• 3D Multiwave Sipes Sipes are thin slits in a treadblock that<br />
cut through water of the road surface to gain traction. <strong>Nitto</strong>’s<br />
3D Multiwave sipes feature an interlocking ripple design, which<br />
allows the sipes to “lock” together while braking to act like a<br />
continuous tread block and provides traction while accelerating.<br />

Features & Benefits<br />
• Intelligent Maintenance Indicators <strong>Nitto</strong>’s intelligent<br />
maintenance indicators are a service feature that visually show<br />
how your tyres are wearing. They can also alert you to wear<br />
issues before they become big problems.<br />
• Siping Siping is one of the most important tyre technologies for<br />
wet and snow traction. <strong>Nitto</strong>’s revolutionary 3D multiwave and<br />
3D Interlocking sipe design provide traction without sacrificing<br />
handling.<br />
• Added Shoulder Inserts The circumferential rubber shoulder<br />
insert adds an additional layer of strength to help you navigate<br />
potholes and other adverse road conditions.<br />
• Wet Traction The NT421Q is an all-season tyre that keeps you<br />
safely connected to the road in inclement weather. The three<br />
wide and deep circumferential grooves improve water evacuation,<br />
providing increased wet handling and traction.<br />

The Terra Grappler all-terrain tyre works year-round with a<br />
balance of wet and dry performance and on-road comfort<br />
and quietness. Designed for use on trucks and SUVs, the<br />
Terra Grappler provides balanced performance in all weather<br />
conditions over various terrains.<br />
Features & Benefits<br />
• Dual Sidewall Designs Each Grappler has two sidewall designs<br />
so you can choose how your tires look. On the Terra Grappler<br />
one side has solid outlined lettering and the other has striped<br />
lettering. This feature was an engineering feat since even a small<br />
weight imbalance can cause unwanted vibrations. <strong>Nitto</strong> produces<br />
exceptionally uniform off-road tires even with different designs.<br />

Angled, lateral voids were engineered to channel<br />
away water in wet conditions and provide forward<br />
stability in dry conditions.<br />
The tread pattern void ratio is balanced for off-road<br />
traction and on road handling. Coupling joints<br />
between tread blocks reduce excessive flex for<br />
better traction and steering response.<br />
Tread blocks on the shoulder are staggered to<br />
improve traction in deep sand and loose dirt.

The Dura Grappler is a highway terrain tyre that provides<br />
a combination of tread life and ride comfort. It is suitable<br />
for a wide variety of light trucks, SUVs and CUVs. Bridges<br />
were added between tread blocks to join individual blocks<br />
into continuous ribs, which stabilizes the tyre and reduces<br />
tread flex. This, in combination with harder compounds,<br />
provides improved tread life. Whether you’re working on a<br />
