Advan Neova pics.

Well, I got my Neovas on yesterday. Here are some pics of my 255/40R17's on 17X9" FN01R-C rims. I really like the black rims against the rust colored rotors. These tires now have 40 miles on them and I am impressed. I had the rt615's on there in 245/45 and they were way to sloppy. I should have gotten the 255/40's but anyway. I switched to these and they are wicked tires. I think the car is much more fun to drive now than stock. These tires are so grippy that I can't even get the rear tires to spin at full launch? I used to rock the A046's at the same rpm. In the corners they are tight and very predictable. You do lose a tiny bit of response, just barely any. In return, you get lots of grip. They are also the quietest tires I have had on the car so far. They are no louder than my all season Kuhmo asx's. I will do a longer review when I wear the silica off and have some real fun!

I'd like to see pics from the front and rear of the entire car so we can see the treadwidth in relation.

So whats the treadwear rating? Sounds like a winner to me. Is it all season or just summer?

Maybe Neal could answer this, in terms of sound, how are they compared to pirelli Pzero M+S, the reigning king of silence, IMO.

Average pricing perhaps for the 9inch range?

You can subscribe by using the thread tools at the top, you don't have to post. A lot of people don't know that.

I am running the same tires and same size. They grip like mad for street tires. To get some responce back use a little higher air pressure.

Treadwear is 180. It's a Max Performance (summer) tire. $214 each from Tirerack.

Are you running those on an 8" wide wheel? I went with 245/40-17 because I wasn't sure how well the 255 would work on the 8" wheel. I love the tires and will be getting them again, but I would prefer to get the 255 if people are running it on 8" wide wheels without problems. Thanks.
