I guess the only way to find out is to stomp that pedal on a wide, empty road.

I was not a fan of the Nitto G2 on my gears-only '94. It would boil the 315s as long as I wanted to stay in the pedal. Downright scary in wet the couple times I got caught in the rain with them. I also had Nitto Terra Grapplers on my F-150, and they were great when new. As they wore, they got pretty sketchy in the wet. I had them for several years. When I replaced them, I went with a Falken Wildpeak - much better all around tire. I was impressed with them enough to put a set of Falken Azensis on the Audi - they've been great as well.

It seems like Nitto tires, along with some others (I've ran the Falken Azenis RK615+ tires on the stang as well) need to get heat in them before they bite. I found this to be especially the case with the Falken Azensis tires, they didn't get that good of traction until I let some air out of them to get them warm out on the open roads. Like as low as 24 - 28 psi. Gotta remember that these low UTQG tires are rated that way for a reason - they're seasonal at best. They're meant to be rode hard and put up wet! (Or ideally dry!)
