Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 2m 23d Posted 12/08/13 11:21 PM Author Share Posted 12/08/13 11:21 PM Yea interested to know how long the 595's lasted.A member on here has them on the back of his 400rwkw BF and he says they hook up great. He got 12,000 out of them so far with still plenty to go. If the 595's are going to grip a lot better than the achilles for the same price, and as long as they last at least 20,000 (which from all accounts they will) then I might try themAs much as the invo's seem great given what I earn I can't afford to pay $700 for 2 new tyres every 9 months 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extremely Good tyre, it grips really well with minimal wheelspin. In roads where going at 40km/h then putting the throttle all the way open, kickdown then would result in the car flinging sideways on the factory tyres, with the PSS the car stays glued to the roadUpgrade the fronts aswell and you will get better steering response and feel and the car will also feel better during cornering.Does not make more noise, if anything it is quieter than my factory ford Dunlops.In the wet you can push the car a little bit and still have traction at times, but really dry performance is what matters.I cannot compare them to other tyres that I have no tried before, but if you ask me if the upgrade is worth it I'd say you have my tick of approval.

Mine went from grippy to slippy so quickly I was sure they were bald but when I looked under the car I found they had at least half tread left. I like the 595 evo tyre but im looking for a change to another brand now. Edited 07/09/13 10:46 AM by wagnman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm running an accelera (I think they call it) 255 35 19 @ 170ea.. 300 tread wear 1st impressions is they stick better than the atr sports 245 35 19 however they are a much bigger tyre. See how they go after 10000kms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z2TT Member 714 Member For: 12y 7m 16d Posted 04/10/13 12:45 PM Share Posted 04/10/13 12:45 PM Nexen? Which ones?I have heard from somebody that N6000's Value for Money are good but with the amount of Power our cars make low down they spin tyres at really low speeds so you really need a good tyre.Rednose how did the Invos grip with that much power and what size did you have?
