Nitto tire

Need some info for Nitto Invo tire. How's the quality, thread life, road noise and handling. Anything will help. I am in the market looking to buy pair of front tires. If anyone has anyother suggestion, is all good.

Thanks

I have no complaints at all about the invo's

They are quieter than stock tires, and grip really well. As for thread life, I've only put about 8k-9k on them, and they're still good so far...

I like the tire, but I just realized they don't have 275/35/19 size for the rear. They only have 285/30/19, does anyone know if I can put 285/30/19 at the rear and as for my front I have 245/35/19. I currently have 275/35/19 at the rear.

Thanks and than you EEjiggapin0 for the short review.

I have their 285/35/19 and the 255/35/19. I know some members here that run a thinner profile in the rear, but I'm not too sure how it is?

your tires stick out a lot from the rear view?

alright, can't wait to see the pictures. Do you have camber instal at the back for the alignment? 285/35/19 is pretty wide. My 275/35/19 is barely keep it within OEM spec range at the rear. But my front is off on the camber.
