Quick question for everybody in this thread, I'm looking to buy some tire for my g37. I got vossen wheels with Nitto Invo right now, but they were in my oher car and now the G37 calls for a different size, the question is should I stick with the Nitto invo, which I love them, because they are really quited or how good are the hankook ventus 12 compare to the Nitto invo? I like a quited tires, but the price of the V12 are really good? Please guys help me with this. I'm going 245/30/20 front and 285/35/20 Rear.

yea, a local vendor asked me why i wanted to go with falkens as they are low end. I'd like to know how much better is it compared to Toyos though? In terms of thread wear, performance, road noise etc..

^ No dampening adjustment! Lol

V12s are decent performance tires for the price. I have the Falken FK452 now, they ride a lot softer than the V12s, last longer too, but their handling is definatly worse. They're good enough for what I need though, so I'll stick to FK452 and V12s in the future.

Road noise will be louder and ride will be harder with V12's vs. FK452's (personal experience)... I still recommend both. FK452 run pretty stretched opposed to the V12's. I'm running 255.35 & 285.30 on a 9.5 F & 10.5 R wheel set up and they still way stretched. LOL.
