    260. I got 15k miles out of them. Considering the way I drive I'd say that's pretty good. Hell Chris...you'd probably get 30-35k miles out of them! When your Nitto's wear out in 2015 give em a try!

    It's not getting thin... that's actually a fine woven horse hair "head piece" fresh from across the border...

    Rick,
    I told you on an earlier thread that you were going to buy the Invo's just to see how much you missed the V's.

    And you are absolutely right. They just ran out of life, and I am driving across the country, at the wrong time! SDCarguy offered to let me use his tires/rims for the trip. But, in good conscience I couldn't wear his tires down like that...but I really appreciated the offer!

    Well....
    You only have to wait another 12-15K and you can get yout V's back. That is about what.....2-3 months for 12-15K of wear.....do lots of burnouts.
