Tire suggestions

I'm looking for a new set of tires in these sizes:

255/35/19 F and 285/35/19

I have Falkens now and I like them, but I was told they don't make a 255/35/19 so I need to find something else. I can get a set of Nitto Invo for $1065 shipped, but I don't know anything about them. Are they good tires and does that price sound right? If anyone has any suggestions on something I could use at a decent price let me know.

I personally do not like the Invo's, my customers say that they are not that great in the rain. That is the same size setup that I have and I have BFG KDW NT and I love them, if you get chance go on www.tires.com and search the sizes and it will tell you what tires are out in those sizes .

I went here and read many of the reviews on the Nitto's and BFG's. Almost everyone says the BFG's are very loud. Almost to the point of being annoying. The only complaint about the Nitto's was the soft sidewall. Most of the reviewers said the wet traction was good. I'll continue to do some research and hopefully other will chime in here as well.

I ended up going with the Nitto's. Hopefully I'll like them and if I don't then I'll change them.

Sweet. It has been raining for days here in D.C., but I am going to put these through their pace this weekend. Twisty roads, here I come!
