New Shoes UPDATED 4/28/11

DropTopPony · Apr 21, 2011

I needed some new tires so I figured I should get some wheels to go with them.

Black 18X9 18X10 Saleens
Nitto Invo 295/35/18 and 255/40/18

I need to wax them and waiting for the center cap decals to arrive before I install them. Will probably have them on next week on my day off.

Nice pickup! I hear good things about those tires. The Corvette guys are obsessed with them I personally prefer the NT05s

Re: New Shoes

Thats where I read most of the reviews for them. (vette forums)
I wanted to try them because they can be rotated.

Nitto seems to be good all around, there's NT555 on the black cobra and they work great

Looks like a nice combo. Can't wait to see them on your Stang. Thanks for sharing.

Re: New Shoes

I don't think i've washed it in 5 years

I'm going to repaint the trim around the top and do the mirrors etc then a full detail over the next couple of weeks. I am tired of looking at it not being driven so its on the way back to DD status.

Re: New Shoes

Can't go wrong with Saleens. Interesting thought too, so those tires aren't directional? Hard to find a performance tire that isn't.

Invo's arnt really a performance tire..... mainly a "baller" tire.

The vette guys that buy Invo's are regular DD vette owners.... Not Z06/ZR1 owners lol
