Best tire for slammed cars? NITTO INVO?

hey guys trying to read up on this new tire, or not so new tire from NITTO. the INVO. Everywhere i hear that its great for handling and this and that but the realy question is this.

Does it lessen the the wear from having a lowered car? i know no matter what you do the inside tread is going to wear out. But the real question is what tire will reduce this? To give your tire more life? Will the INVO do it? Any suggestions on tires you or anyone you have heard?

I have ran T1r's for a while then the T1S's before. They last about 10k.

Thanks for the help!

check out nitto neo gen. They are designed for lowered cars with camber issues because the inner side of the tire will wear out slower. i have had mine for over 10,000 miles and they still have plenty of thread.

but you can't flip nitto neo gen's. it's possible to get the same mileage out of other some other tires by flipping them.

thats what i have been doing with the 19s. but my next set of wheels will be 20s and the NEOs dont come in 20s.

i'll keep looking for the next best thing. i know the 20s will lessen my camber but there still has to be a better tire out there. T1Rs are very soft. going on my 6 set in 2 years.
