I just talking with Jeep SRT driver today and he recommended me Nitto for street drag , traffic light to traffic light or traffic to long street .

I have Michellin PS and they are good until now. But, I will change next time because they are expensive.

I have the invos,you cant beat them for the money but hands down I think the ps2s are the best tires we can run.

i just swapped my nittos for my drag radials today.

my next tires will be the 285/35 ps2 on a 9.5 wheel

E63 AMG & CLK350
I replaced my Michelin Pilot Sports with Invos on my M3 and there is a noticeable difference between the two tires. The Invos have a softer sidewall and you can feel it in turns. Still not bad for the money, though.

I have been running Invo's for a while now, and swear by them... Main reason being the overall performance and value... It has excellent grip in dry weather, but during rain it grips just as good... I trust these tires in foul weather and to me, personally, that means more than anything else... I don't really consider myself an aggressive driver so I can't say much about it's performance in handling, but I personally did not notice a difference from the PS2's my car had previous to the Invos...

i find the invos a bit boring to look at, the sidewall is blah
