OK, so I've been looking some more, and I find 3 different listigs for the PS2s. Anyone know the differences?

Also been thinking of having the stock Brembo rims painted while they are dismantled. Thoughts?

They may have came stock on a particular vehicle and that listing is used to denote it. Post links Marc and I'll point out what I mean.

Exactly the same. Just denoting what they where originally built for. If ANYTHING is different it would be the manufacture date, but I'm not saying it will be. I'm sure you know that auto makers take bids from other companies for certain parts, usually lowest bidder with best product wins. For example, Say if it denotes that they're the stock tires for a '10 Mercedes, they could maybe be a set of tires from that manufacturing time frame but were never bought by the vehicle manufacturer due to lack of demand. Exact same tire. Price compare between Tirerack, Discounttire, and Discounttiredirect

Keep in mind that Discount Tire Direct has free shipping, so compare between the shipped price from Tirerack and the listed price from DTD.

Hell, I've dug pretty good, and that's the only difference. One had a BMW marker on the web page. The other didn't.

I'm still going back to the Invos, for a good mix of performance/price. I still don't know.

I cant wait to put my invos on, but i hear good things about the nt05s.... i think the invos are an all around better street tire.... not to mention they can be rotated with a stag setup

How can you rotate a stag set up?You gonna put wider tires and wheels up front as opposed to the the back?

No, the invo's have an asymmetrical tread design, so it doesnt have a certain direction that the tires has to go in.... the tread is the same forward as it is backward, so you can rotate side to side

I think Stewart meant a symmetrical design. ;) If you have a staggered setup with asymmetrical tires, you have four different tires & cannot rotate. Just one reason I won't go starggered if/when I get wheels.

"Asymmetric Tread Design. Featuring a unique asymmetrical, non-directional tread pattern, the Nitto INVO allows Mustangs owners with staggered fitments the ability to extend the life of their tires by rotating them from side to side."
