I'm running nitto neogens which are supposed to be made for cars running negative camber. The nitto invo's are designed the same way, for even wear while running negative camber.

yeah i remember nitto ads mentioning it.

thats interesting. never knew they had such a thing

[reverse]

do they actually work?

[hammer.time]

thats pretty sweet, never knew they even made such a thing. Def worth the extra money to increase the tire life

[parhamm1]

Well I'm running -2.6 camber up front and about -2 out back and I've had the neogens for about 3,000 miles thus far and they're doing great. Perfectly even wear right now. G coupe are notorious for bad in cabin road noise too and these are keeping the noise down very, very nicely.

[riboflavin]

very interesting. So I guess these tires have taller sidewall on the outside?

It seemed like Jay Leno didn't understand most of what the guy said like camber, turn-in, toe-out and etc and I'm surprised he doesn't know a thing about tires. The guy said "245/40/18" and Leno was like "2 is what???" okay, two hundred forty five. LOL Oh well, he's still ballin' with so many cars...

I'd just make sure my toe is zero'd or within-in spec. Camber will cause uneven wear but as long as toe is centered tires will last close to what they are supposed to last. ppl often think aggressive camber will wear tires fast but toe is what causes rapid wear. I've run several tires with more than -3 camber but with zero toe and they all lasted pretty long and uneven wear wasn't that noticeable.

^Bingo. Toe is truly the main cause of premature inner wear. Camber a little, but not nearly as much of a factor as toe.

I've had neogen's in the past as well and always had great results from them. Looking forward to this new tire design coming into the car world.

jay leno doesnt know tire sizes!? wtf! o well...he has the money to buy the company that makes the tires so i guess hes not THAT dumb


i wish i had the pocket change to pick those up :/ a trip to coinstar should do the trick!

still under construction. im interested to see where this goes

[fuckin jerry]

neogens are great for reducing camber wear but they can't corner for shit in my opinion.
