Nitto 555's have a strong side lip right by the rim that will help stop curb rash.

Nitto 555's suck, they wont protect your rims. I learned the hard way. KDW's are for sure meaty, big sidewall, im running those now and love them.

The other reason I got the Hankook Ventus K107's is that they are a nondirectional tire so there will be no cupping (noise generation) from the tread as the tire wears. This is a very quiet performance tire.
