Thank you guys so much for all the opinions! im guessing im going to go with the 255/35/20 up front with a 295/30/20 on the rear setup. but is 295/35/20 too much for the rear? i dont know very much about tires but im learning and thanks again.

I have the Racelines also, I run 255/35/20 front and 275/35/20.

When I change them out I'll be doing the same size front but either a 285 or 295/35/20. Not sure why you would do a 30 in the rear? (interested to find out)

I am getting a different size wheel. I have zero complaints with the Invos. They have been excellent tires the mileage I have had them on the car. I would buy them again.

I wish they made more 18" sizes in Invos and NT05s.

Thanks~!
I have the black chrome FR500's on in my pictures in 20". I am currently in the process of getting new wheels, so I won't have them much longer.

I really can't say enough good things about the Invos....I just hope my upcoming tires are as nice. If not, I will upgrade again to the Invos.

I had Nitto 555s and now I have Falken 452s. The Falken tires seem to grip a bit better. I just hope they get the same mileage.
