i'm actually looking into new tires, and was looking at nittos you mentioned in particular, along with the Kuhmo Ecsta SPT. the Invo is supposed to be their quiestest tire and offers the best dry and wet road grip over the neo gen. the treadwear rating is 260 for W and 220 for Y rated tires. Not sure what the treadwear is for the T1Rs you have, but seem to be a good choice. the 275 is huge on the front, go with 245 or 255 the most. currently i have BFG KDW2s and they are loud. at first they didn't bother me, but about 10k into them i's starting to get really annoying.

I've had the TOYO T1R and the Nitto Neo Gen

My tire sizes are 245/35/19 and 275/35/19.

I did not like the Nitto's at all. They were slightly more expensive than the Toyos. They are not nearly as grippy as the Toyos are. I did not notice that they last any longer.

25-30K miles out of these tires is insane.

ou recommended me go 245 on my fronts, arent those 8.0", so id go with a 245/255/35/19
