I like the NT05. The Invo is a good tire but I am just not a huge fan of the tread pattern. We sell them all, if you need prices send me a pm!

Default Nvo

I just put a set of Invo's on my C6 and love them. They transformed the ride from rock hard to compliant and predictable. I think they look awesome.
The one thing I hate is they smell like manure. These are the stinkiest tires I've ever had. Hopefully it will disipate but my garage smells like an out house now.
They smell so bad I probably wouldnt buy them again.
Anyone one else experience this with a tire?

I have a stack of the Invos in our wharehouse daily and have never smelt anything bad. You must of picked something up in the road. Classic.

Did you happen to check for roadkill under the car? Maybe a cat on the crossmember?
