Well iv booted it a few times and the traction control light hasn't come on yet so they are doing their job nicely.. 275-30-20 and were 180 or so fitted.. I'd take them any day over the 2 choices mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang on ok, cheap and look great, but keen to get them off the rear shortly. You will also notice at some point a line/crack appear right across the tread which I originally thought I'd run over something on the first set. These have both done the same. Apparently that's normal for them. I did rate them initially but you'll know when they're done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I treat mine relatively nicely and they are really only being treated as a street tyre.. getting other rims with some radials soon for proper runs..the warehouse is at Southort and ill be jumping up and down if they split on me :/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dry is good, have no complaints. plenty of meat left after 10k kms, with decent driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had Dunlop Sport Maxx (reasonable), ATR 2's, which I found ok, but still expected more. Went the Nitto Invo's and loved them to pieces, I found them not overly noisy, way more grippy than any other street tyre. Definitely would recommend them. Cheapest I found them in perth was 500 a tyre for 245/30/20, or for 550 for 275/30/20. Taleb tyres in sydney were only 275 front and 325 for the rears. Shipped 4 tyres to me in less than a week and awesome price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It feels like a waste.I go cheap now and I got 20000km out of my last seat of rears (and they went through hell).When these tyres are gone I'll be selling my rims and stepping down to 19s with Achilles atrs. My step dad has a set on his audi and they drive very wellMatty was that while you had the 441rwkw? What were the NT05's like for traction? If you really flattened it did it hold on? I was considering them but at the time wanted longevity as well so went for the invo's and was happy, but wanted to know how well the NT05's really worked.
