What's out there? You just listed the main brands.

I'd personally get the invo.

Nice username

I'd go with the NT-05 since I like the tread design. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a 295/35/18 GSD3.

Im pretty much in the same boat as you. they dont make nt555 in 295/35, so those are out, Im mainly trying to decide between the invo and kdw2. Im going back and forth everyday. I think im going to see which i can get cheapest.

Nt05 or invo is my vote. My invo's seem to be putting my power down decent so far on the street. But I'm probably going to try a nt05 next time to see how they are.

Anyone have a good source for this size at a cheaper price? The mainstream tire retailers all carry a limited selection of this size and I can't find anything decent under like $250 per tire. That's crazy compared to 17's where you can get a decent tire for like $150.

PS2's have a very good balance of ride, dry and wet handling. The KDW2 are a little noisy but have a fantastic looking tread pattern.
