I like the NT05. The Invo is a good tire but I am just not a huge fan of the tread pattern. We sell them all, if you need prices send me a pm!

I just put a set of Invo's on my C6 and love them. They transformed the ride from rock hard to compliant and predictable. I think they look awesome.
The one thing I hate is they smell like manure. These are the stinkiest tires I've ever had. Hopefully it will disipate but my garage smells like an out house now.
They smell so bad I probably wouldnt buy them again.
Anyone one else experience this with a tire?

So, what your saying is they smell bad.

:lol: I have a stack of the Invos in our wharehouse daily and have never smelt anything bad. You must of picked something up in the road. Classic.

Did you happen to check for roadkill under the car? Maybe a cat on the crossmember?:eek:

smell bad for a few weeks when they are new, but it gets better

im going to be inside the car most of the time and im gonna be driving my car all the time so i think they will break in faster and get rid of the smell if thats true..

Maybe, No one else seems to have this problem. Maybe one of my buddies is playing a prank on me.
Great tire for the money. I would recomend them.

I'm a big fan of NT05 tire myself. For a muscle car, that gets driven a few thousand miles a year, it's a great tire!

Car And Driver magazine did a comparison of some of the higher end tires, and at the time Nitto did not have an NT05 available for testing, and submitted the INVO. While still in the top 10, did not do so hot. Car and Driver did foot note that the NT05 was expected to do better.

Johnny runs them on his 67 Tempest, and loves them. He said they made a huge difference in the way his car handled.
