Nitto Invo tires. You're thoughts please.
Back of the Aug. issue of European Car, theres a sweet looking pic of a tire, I checked out the website, and thats cool, so I can only imagine these are the awesomest tires in teh world.
Actually, I like the tread, and they put thought into that, but its only a 'AA' rating for traction, and 'A' rating for temp, and the treadwear is 200 something (depending on speed rating, low or high 200's). A slightly harder tread is actually a good thing for me, I currently have BFG GForce tires, and they're loud as hell, and I've chewed them up a bit driving route 80 up to the camp thru Van Hornsville (my own private 3/4 mile mini-dragon).
So, back to the point, what do you guys think?
Problem is, they're marketing to high end euro cars, which means $$$$$, even though they're not the best. I'm hoping, though my chances are slim, that these sell for less than $125 a piece.<ul><li><a href="http://www.nittoinvo.com">http://www.nittoinvo.com</a</li></ul>

Thoughts on which? The falkens or the Nittos?
The nittos seem good, but if my TT was a daily driver, I'd want something with a higher treadwear rating and was quiet. I put the Falkens on my TT a year or more ago when it was still a daily driver. It's not a daily driver anymore, but I don't regret the purchase. I love the Falkens.
