I would stay away from the Invos. Look hot, but read around on the performance. There is a thread on the 452s here, read up on it and make up your own decision. I go through so many rear tires and with a heavy car I only run V12s, T1Rs, and Extremes. All are great performance tire that fit in your budget.

What tire sizes are you running? What do you want your next set of tires to do for you?

Do you have the 17 or 18's? Are you looking at price primarily or is something else also important to you, performance, ride, tread life, etc.?
