I run Invo's on my supercharged Viper, and have been more than happy with the tire. I have no doubt the PS2s are superior, and supposedly hold their grip longer through the treadlife cycle, but I'm happy with mine since they fit my 20/20 combo!

I got turned onto these from the Z06 crowd...the aftermarket tire sizes are identical, and you don't really have options in these sizes....Michelin, Pirelli or Nitto's. Again, I'm really happy with the traction/handling so far.

I'm not sure how much it's lowered, but I'd say almost 2 inches. I'm happy with the ride, although its definitely firmer than stock. It's not bouncy like with the Eibach kits, but I'm not sure handling at higher speeds has improved at all

I run them on my ZO6. Good tire, good price. They seem to hold up well. Sidewalls tend to be a little soft with a little 'flex', but I just up the psi a few pounds and all is well.

Let us know what you think!

Ok friends I just installed the set of Nitto Invo and all I can say is the viper has never felt better. I am sure you guys saw my post 6 weeks ago when I bought the viper I had posted pics and in my post I had mentioned that the car would track really bad and it was a bit rough. Well the car was running on Pilot Sport Cup at that time. After the install of the INVO, the car is way more comfy and also does not really track on small cracks and ridges on the road. Also very quiet. Love the change and worth the money,

I paid $1080 for brand new tires (Friend owns a shop and gave me cost) and I paid $300 to install, Balance and also add a warranty certificate from Discount tire.

Thanks for all your help and info. . . I would definitely recommend these tires for people with vipers and vetts.
