What tires are you running?

That's more in my price range! I'll have to check em out. We'll see if they have my size

Someone here bought some Nitto Invo's a month or so ago. Do a search see if you can find him.

I did the search and the only person I found with pics and input on the Invo's was you. So are those yours? If so how do you like them? What'd you pay etc.

No, I have Bridgestone RE-11's and Nitto NT01's. The Bridgestone's wouldn't be my first choice as a street tire, they are designed for street class auto-cross. The NT01's are grooved race tires.

Mike at DDM bought the Invo's for his street tires, also Lou at Amplified has them as well.

I don't think the RE-11s are objectionable for the street. Noise and ride comfort are on par with the RE050A IMO. Tread wear is a concern, but if they are inline with the RE01Rs, then it should be decent.

The RE-11s have a treadwear rating of 180 which is actually higher than the RE050As. The RE050A are listed at 140 for some sizes.

I was willing to make a compromise as a street tire, these are primarily being used for street class auto-cross. My tires will last 1 year if I'm lucky. They aren't the quietest tire as they are wide, but they aren't any worse than the stock RE050A's.
