2 years now with normally moderate and occasional spirited driving on my INVOs... fronts will probably go 24,000 based on tread wear indicators...rears?....well, 11,000 now, but it appears 16,000 to 18,000 max....& you can probably guess why...they won't last as long..
....but, I am very pleased with the quietness of ride, great handling, and traction of these INVOs...and will replace with INVOs when the time comes...

Got one summer on my set, no complaints so far. I would buy another set if that means anything.

These tires are on my sons vette and they pissed me off because he can drive on 3 inches of snow in and out of my 200 foot driveway due to the tread pattern. My NT05 won't even try.

I installed a set of the NTTO INVOs on my 99 with 19" and 20" rims. I love how they ride:
