Nitto Invo Tires

I've pretty much worn out the pilot sports on my SL600 and looking to replace them with Nitto Invos.

Does anyone here use the Invos ? Unless someone with an SL has something bad to say about them - I think I am going to give them a try.

I can keep the 255/40 in the front - but the rears will have to be bumped up to a 295/35. I have the stock 18" wheels - will this be a problem?

I am currently using 295/35/18 on mine. no problem. it doesnt look as good though because the rim is so much more inside the tire

Let me know if you get them. I would love to try them when my current rubber wears out.
