Calvin,

I am running these tires but don't have -3 camber. I have about -1.5 camber for about 5k miles now with little wear. However, I'm not sure -3 camber will wear the same.

Don

What about the INVO?

I had a set of 555's. They were awesome in the dry but wet was bad!

Might have to see if I can fit some 285/30 Invo's on next time. Sucks they don't make a 275/30 (only 35)

Guess it depends on your criteria. I need all the dry traction I can get so that is #1 in my book. Then tread life, etc...

Looks like the NeoGen has good ratings overall. I wonder what the pricing is like for 19's?

looks like a consumer reports type survey...

I have these tires as well - will be getting them mounted today and probably put the wheels on next week after the supposed snow storm headed this way passes...

I am hoping they perform and last as good as everything i have read says they will.

Someone else posted the scans. It's from Consumer Reports.

Any more Neogen ratings? I loved my 555s, but here in AZ it's hard to find too many rainy days. Looks like the sizes on OEM 19s might not be perfect, 275s in the rear give you some bulge and not the kind the ladies like At least in pics I've seen. I'm game to see others though.. car pics that is

Looks like 245s up front would give you .3" more height and 1.3% too slow on the speedo. 275s in rear would be .1" taller and only .5% slow

If you've got 275s on OEM 19s, show us how it looks please.

Nevermind, looks like 275s wouldn't be a great idea on the 8.5" rears anyway
