41K Mile Update on: Nitto Invo tires on my 2007 IS250.
My right rear tire picked up a small finish nail very close to the sidewall. :( (Bummer)
It created a slow leak, and since it was almost on the sidewall, patching from the inside would be in a high flex area, so the patch would not last that long. The rear tires had approximatly 41,000 miles on them and the tread wear indicator was pretty close to even with the remaining tread. So it was time to get a new set of rear tires.
The new set of Nitto Invo tires for the rear set me back a total of $365 ($163 per tire + $9 M/B per tire + 6% Tax).
My front tires are still looking good, with sufficient tread remaining. I estimate approximatly 10K miles remaining.
I obviously like these tires, as I replaced the rears with a new set of Nitto Invo (255/40ZR18). They are very quiet, good handling and have good tread life for high performance tires. When the front tires wear out, I will also replace them with a new set of Nitto Invos.
