you wont be disappointed with the NT05s

and they're not dangerous to use even when its raining, unlike other tires on its category....

I figure when I upgrade from the GMPP to either the Trifecta or Trifecta e85 I may need a bit more traction! I can spin the Hankooks readily in 1st and 2nd with just the GMPP tune. Can also get 3rd gear spin if changing lanes.

last year running NT05s 275/35/18, I REALLY have a hard time spinning them at 3rd gear with 400 horses.....lol

with my my current project, I need to make sure that I enough meat on the ground, so I already upgraded to NT05s 295s

I really think that you won't be disappointed with the Nittos NT05 even if you choose trifecta E85

I like the Nitto INVOs, they are sticky as well.....but not on the same category of the NT05s.


The grooves of the INVOs REALLY look cool though!

Thanks for the input SKY888. What diameter wheel you running?

Take a look at the Sumitomo HTRIII's, not the II's

While Hankook is a fine choice, sometimes I sway my decision based on price.  Do a search on 245/45/18 size on TR and Goodyear F1 Asymmetric comes out significantly cheaper.  The difference in the average reviewer ratings is very little.

Given the F1 was stock on my GXP I would take the gamble on the Hankook as I'm not impressed with the F1s.  If the Hankook is really equal to the F1 I would find a different tire altogether.

I used to have the 18x9 OZ wheels.....and the max that you can run with those are 275 tires

I have 18x10 Forgestar wheels right now, and 295 tires.

What was on Amelia when she took her final ride?

The Invos were still on. The tread was a bit low and I was going to replace them. It might have been a contributing factor to the accident.

Gwyneth, will most likely be getting the HTRZ IIIs. I kind of want an all season tire, but since it's at DDM I'll take whatever they can get me/ recommend.

Those look pretty good also.

They handle good in the wet or dry, just as Elff

Elff handles good in the wet or dry?  I don't even want to know.

[Brazen17]

Not sure I want to go there...not sure at all!

Nitto Invo got a pretty low rating on the Car and Driver eval a few years ago, but that is for a PS2 alternative, so might not be what you are looking for.
