SA SNAKE said:hmwave I hear what you are saying but as long as you take it easy in the rain you should be fine. I have two sets of Nitto DR's my car is a daily driver. Now snow or ice that is a diffrent thing. I just feel for you $650 is alot to spend every 3 or so months.
Good luck.

I was quoted around $250 each for the Nittos so the bill wouldn't be much different anyways.
I'll fit the GS-D3's for the winter and may consider new rims/Nittos for the summer months, spread out the wear a little.
I really don't want to take the chance of Nittos in the heavy, sheeting rain we oftern receive here. The highway today was like a shallow river and I could feel the car getting light. With good tread on the GS-D3's it always feels firmly planted and safe.
