Hand torque on ALL wheels is what I expect, not request.

Just bought a set of 18" Super Sports at Discount Tire for $860 net installed. They were running a 100$ rebate + 30$ if you use Discount tire credit. To me they're a big improvement over the stock Potenzas. Well worth it. I got 28k out of the Stones.... we'll see how long these last.

Thanks Guys, really appreciate it...I'm working on getting a new camera lol... hopefully soon. As for the drop..... perhaps some swifts, but that's a discussion for another thread. Thanks again for the compliments.
Really happy with the tires thus far

You did well. I have had mine on for 5 months and about 6,000 miles and they are great so far.

mediocre tire at best. not a bad call if performance is not a priority though.

Which is funny because 8/10 guys in the local Viper club run Invos. Though that might have more to due with sizing than anything else?
