Nitto Invos?

Anyone have these? I'm looking to replace my brand new ones. They feel like mud tires the way they resonate through the floor and gas pedal. They make a droning noise between 35-60 mph also. I read all these reviews about how quiet they are. Really?! Who here has the quietest tire in a 245/35-19. Don't even care about performance at this point. Just something smooth and quiet. Not wanting to spend a fortune either. Thanks.

Yes I agree. I have these in 245/35/19 and got the best deal installed from Costco and there smooth and quiet for my 3k miles per month.

They also have free rotate/balance/road hazard.

Have has 2 bent rims already. Replaced 1 tire free and mount balance free both times.

After dealing in cars for 10 years, I can tell you never get cheap tires, it always comes back to haunt you. They get noisy fast in a high profile design. At LEAST Kuhmo or any common major brand.

Looking at the continental dws's now. Reasonable price and they're all-seasons which should be quieter than summers.
