Posted 10/08/13 12:25 PM Share Posted 10/08/13 12:25 PM Hey guys I need some help deciding on a new set of front tyres.I have had nitto invos on front and rear and they have been fantastic with 350rwkw. I have new invos sitting in the garage but it just seems like a wast putting them on the front. Has anyone tried nitto nt555's or got anything else in mind?Size is 245/40 r18 Thanks for your help!

These new tyres it is. Save the good tyres for the rear.Try these for the front.http://www.achillesradial.com/en/tires/passenger-car/achilles-atr-sport-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I wouldn't really have any steering issues or real traction loss with them on the front? Cause the invos were great on the front but like you said leave the good ones for the rear.

They're quiet, long lasting and cheap. A great all round front tyre.Looking at about $100 a tyre cheaper than invo's and will last 2 to 3 times as long 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 24/08/13 01:19 AM Author Share Posted 24/08/13 01:19 AM Well I have the new achilles atr2's on the front now and had the car all aligned after a not so good experience at wa suspension but we wont go there... They feel pretty good so far. I have all new super pro bushes put in with a 27mm adjustable sway bar and the car is alot more comfortable to drive now and corners sooooo much better haha. The new invos seem to be struggling more then previous sets on the rear though =/ Only had them on for about 500km so far though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
