Have been seeing these in the magazines for the longest time....thought I'd be the guinea pig.

I already have one person at the driving range asking me if these are some prototype tires.

I can't stop staring at the tread design...

 

the car looks nice!

 

Invo´s look awesome. Very nice looking car.

 

Thanks for the comments =)

The tire is soooooooooo quiet and smooth it's not even funny....

 

I agree with you about the tread.

How many miles have u had them? Keep us update. Also, I am curious about (if you dont mind me asking) how much did you pay those? Thanks

 

Sweet tires!~!~!

 

I like the way those tires look and even better, cheaper than PS2s. Since my rear treads are pretty much gone..... called up Discount Tire, have a set coming.

Nitto Invo
Front Tire 225/45ZR-17 91W BLK (40338) $133.00 each
Rear Tire 245/40ZR-17 91W B (40350) $149.00 each

 

I called up discount tire direct and special ordered them (they didn't have the 255's in stock)

they do free shipping so you can't go wrong =)

I have about a few hundred miles on these already.

 

european car mag had a one page review on them this month (whatever month i just got in the mail) fitted on a e46 m3. they loved it.

i will try to stay away from assymetric directional tires for my next set tho. this way i can rotate side to side to even out shoulder wear. can't do that with invos or ps2s.

 

the invos are assymetrial non directional so you can rotate them from side to side.....but the shoulder will always be the shoulder. You can rotate them to make sure they keep the quietness as the tire wears down.

What u're thinking about is a symetrical non directional like the michelin mxx3's =)

 

Those look great!

What size wheels are those? 18"? 19"?

 

how are these tires in the wet?

 

nice car btw.
makes me miss mine even more

 

Great looking tires!

What size wheels are those? 18"? 19"?

 

OE 18"

225/40 and 255/35

Car survived the big downpour last week in socal with stride. I had to drive back from SD back to LA in a hurry. Had no problems going 80mph (maybe I shouldn't have...) but so far very impressed.

 

what is your tire pressure for front and back? they wanted 30 F 33 R, i said 32 F 35 R.

 

I looked at the driver's door jamb...there is a placard there with the OE recommended pressure. I think it was 32F and 37R ? Not sure off the top of my head...

 

try 36F 32R ... that will make the car feel less nose heavy.

 

is the sidewall rounded ??

 

what do you mean? There's more of a bulge at 32 PSI in the fronts compared to the rear, I'll try 34F 34R this weekend to see how it goes.

 

sidewall profile is pretty rounded yes.

I wouldn't go lower than the recommended pressure on the placard. The amount of load a tire carry depends on how much air is in the tire so there must've been a reason mb recommended a certain pressure.

I don't like the understeer in the car so I am running 37psi front and rear now =)
