neither had i. i just was using the google machine and found that. other places people like them. but an issue like that, even if its in a very small margin compared to all the tires ever sold, is enough for me to choose another tire style/brand. but thats just me.

i notice that it is more common among 18" wheels and they were always going at high speeds around turns. i had them on 17's and i had no problems out of them the short time i had them.

that may have to deal with it. they may not be as well made on the 18 inch or they just arnt designed well for it.

im torn between the nitto 555 and bfg g force kdw right now. so hard to choose!

the invos look to me like sex, and that tells me probably more time was spend on the tread design than the actual design of how the tire performs. (maybe not, just a guess)

i keep coming back to the 555's. ill most likely get those, then if i have problems ill try other options in the future

You'll love them. For front tires I have always heard and have always myself gotten an alignment. Now I will say that when I got these tires I also installed a new steering rack, so I NEEDED an alignment, I'm talking toed in so bad, but that was from installing the new rack. I still suggest an alignment, you don't want to drop coin like this on nice tires only to have them be done within a year. My 2 cents. For the extra maaaaybe 100, it's worth it.

I know that Firestone used to have a lifetime alignment package, not sure what the original cost was, but came with free lifetime alignments for that vehicle. I have since had to result to a performance shop with my set up being lowered and adjustable, but its something to look into.

Firestone buy me still does lifetime alignments. I believe its like $150 or $170 or so.

For my tire size those ran pricier than the Nitto 555's. They actually came on my wheels when I bought them brand new. Lasted a good while and are a good tire. For that price it's a steal to me.
