This is exactly what I was thinking when others said that the taller rear tire could mess up the PSM... I will continue to research the idea, luckily I have brand new bridgestone s-02's on the car, but I have run Nitto Invo's on a few other cars and just love them. the ride quality & lack of road noise is off the charts good. Would like to run these on my C4S.
