The Invo is Nitto's Ultra High Performance Summer tire, developed for drivers of luxury and high-performance cars, sporty coupes, and sedans who desire optimal dry and wet traction in a refined package. Like all summer tires, the Invo is not intended to be driven, stored, or serviced in near- or below-freezing temperatures, through snow, or on ice.
The Invo's silica-reinforced compound is molded into an asymmetric tread pattern, featuring blocks of varying size and position engineered to offset perceived road noise for an enhanced driving experience. Wide, reinforced outboard shoulder blocks maximize dry grip and cornering performance, while a solid rib at the tire's inboard center provides rigidity and stability during hard braking and acceleration. Twin circumferential grooves allow water to flow through the tread for effective hydroplaning resistance and wet traction. The inboard tread blocks with 3D Mulltiwave sipes and an interlocking ripple feature allow the sipes to lock together while braking for optimal control in wet weather.
The internal construction of the Invo consists of a two-ply polyester casing for comfort and increased handling capability. Its two wide steel belts are reinforced by 2 nylon cap plies for added stiffness and support.
Note: Ultra High Performance Summer tires exposed to temperatures of 20 degrees F (-7 degrees C) or lower must be permitted to gradually return to temperatures of at least 40 degrees F (5 degrees C) for at least 24 hours before they are flexed in any manner, such as by adjusting inflation pressures, mounting them on wheels or using them to support, roll or drive a vehicle.
Flexing of the specialized rubber compounds used in Ultra High Performance Summer tires during cold-weather use can result in irreversible compound cracking. Compound cracking is not a warrantable condition because it occurs as the result of improper use or storage. Tires exhibiting compound cracking must be replaced.
El neumático Invo de Nitto pertenece a la categoría: Ultra Alto Rendimiento Para Verano y fue desarrollado para conductores de autos lujosos y de alto rendimiento, cupé y sedán deportivos, que buscan una tracción óptima sobre superficies secas y mojadas en un conjunto refinado. Como todo neumático de Ultra Alto Rendimiento Para Verano, el Invo, no fue diseñado para ser reparado, guardado o utilizado en temperaturas cercanas al nivel de congelación o superficies con hielo o nieve.
El compuesto de caucho reforzado con sílice se encuentra moldeado en una banda de rodadura con patrón asimétrico y cuenta con bloques o tacos de diferentes tamaños y posiciones, que disminuyen el ruido de la carretera y mejoran la experiencia al conducir. Bloques anchos reforzados en los hombros, maximizan la tracción sobre superficies secas y el rendimiento al tomar curvas, a la vez, un segmento sólido en la parte central interior proporciona rigidez y estabilidad al frenar o acelerar. Canales circunferenciales gemelos permiten que el agua fluya eficientemente a través de la huella, permitiendo una resistencia efectiva contra el deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning) y mayor tracción sobre superficies mojadas. Los bloques en la parte interna de la huella poseen pequeñas ranuras tridimensionales "3D Multiwave" y una función de ondulación entrelazada permite que las ranuras se cierren juntas mientras se frena, obteniendo un control óptimo sobre superficies mojadas.
La construcción interna del Invo cuenta con una estructura de dos capas de poliéster, para mayor comodidad y capacidad de maniobrabilidad. Sus dos correas anchas de acero han sido reforzadas por dos capas de nailon, para proporcionar mayor rigidez y soporte.
Nota: Neumáticos de Ultra Alto Rendimiento Para Verano expuestos a temperaturas de 20 grados Fahrenheit (-7 grados Celsius) o más bajas, deben retornar gradualmente, a temperaturas de por lo menos 40 grados Fahrenheit (5 grados Celsius), por lo menos 24 horas antes de que sean doblados o flexionados en cualquier manera, como, por ejemplo, ajustando la presión de inflado, montar en rines, soportar el peso del vehículo o rodarlos al conducir.
Flexionar o doblar el caucho especializado, utilizado en los neumáticos de Rendimiento Extremo Para Verano, en condiciones frías, puede resultar en grietas irreversibles al compuesto de caucho. Si esto sucede, la garantía del producto se anula debido al uso o almacenamiento incorrecto. Neumáticos con grietas en el caucho deben ser remplazados.

Very good wet and dry traction...
Very good wet and dry traction. Quieter on road than OEM tires. Good tire when doing autocross as well.

...The track had puddles, small streams running across the track and damp spots. There were moments of down pour rain, steady drizzle and sun all in the same session and the PS4S performed consistently and I felt confedient carring speed on the straight away and corners with these tires...
I bought these tires for a wet track day. I also had these tires on my 2020 M2 Comp on a wet track day. These tires performed better than expected the 1st time I had a wet track day in my M2. So when I had a wet track day in my 2022 GT4 there was no question what tires I needed to use for that day. The track had puddles, small streams running across the track and damp spots. There were moments of down pour rain, steady drizzle and sun all in the same session and the PS4S performed consistently and I felt confedient carring speed on the straight away and corners with these tires. I would recomend these for wet driving conditions on track.

...They have impeccable wet and dry traction, even in torrential downpours we often get here in FL...
These tires have been great thus far. They have impeccable wet and dry traction, even in our torrential downpours we often get here in FL. Steering response in very positive and tight, and when they've been pushed to their limit they break away easily and predictably which is surprisingly hard to get them to do even in this big SUV. Warm-up time is quick and they're performing great long before the engine oil is up to temp and the vehicle is ready for fun. Tread wear so far is a little better than what I expected. At about 6k miles they are showing little overall wear despite handling 650hp/700ftlbs in a 4500lb SUV that is driven very spirited through corners often. They seem quiet on the highway, but it's hard to tell as my 958 has the extra NVH package so its basically silent inside no matter what. Sidewalls seem stiff and perky as you'd want from a tire like this, and ride quality is stiff and composed but not overly harsh compared to whatever trash tires were on this when I bought it.
Overall these are amazing tires for a spirited street driver like myself that might see occasional track time. The 20k mileage warranty on a performance tire this size is also an amazing and unusual bonus. I'll definitely be putting these back on when replacement time comes.

...Dry traction is one of the best for daily driving and wanting to get into some fun!...
One of the best tires I've ever put on my WRX! Corner grip and handling is predicable and precise. Wet traction has never missed a beat even till 4/32" tread. Dry traction is one of the best for daily driving and wanting to get into some fun! Comfort is pretty good for this category and noise is quite quiet for this type of tire. As the tire aged you do start to notice some tire noise but it's really faint. Michelin makes a really good product. I will consider this as the king of Max Perf. Summer tires.

...Vast improvement over OEM tires; grip, responsiveness to steering input, braking distance much reduced... Much more capable and predictable at the limit, better feel/feedback through steering wheel. Able to carry more speed on entry, mid-corner, and apply throttle sooner on exit...
Excellent tires which permit somewhat more than „spirited“ for daily driving. Vast improvement over OEM tires; grip, responsiveness to steering input, braking distance much reduced. Went to 18“ for better ride compliance. Much more capable and predictable at the limit, better feel/feedback through steering wheel. Able to carry more speed on entry, mid-corner, and apply throttle sooner on exit. Ride on mixed surfaces is excellent; road noise not an issue for me. True heavy wet weather performance remains unknown. However, limited opportunities to drive in moderately wet conditions demonstrates excellent traction that exceeds that of OEM; inspires far more confidence when pushing hard on slick/sketchy pavement.
Overall, very pleased with this set of tires for this vehicle.

Dry Traction is Insane. They feel very planted and take demanding curves with ease. Wet traction is very good and they maintain good contact with the road in heavy rain. Not so great in the light snow but they are Summer Tires! Be sure to have a winter set of tires if you live in a region that gets snow and save these tires for fun times when it's warm out. :)

...These are incredible in any category: dry-grip: insane • wet grip: insane • highway noise: very quiet • turn-in: instant • cornering grip: more than my 50+ year old body is willing to test • comfort: smooth as other tires...
The N0 Porsche rating is not a joke...
In early 2020 tried a set of PS4S that were not available in the N0 rating and ended up returning them for a set of Pilot SuperSports. These "non N0" rated tires made my 911 feel like a mini-van and were terrible - they didn't even feel safe. Obviously I was very apprehensive ordering PS4S's this time around, but since they are now N0 rated, and the fact that Pilot SuperSports are no longer offered, I took the chance and ordered them.
These are incredible in any category: dry-grip: insane • wet grip: insane • highway noise: very quiet • turn-in: instant • cornering grip: more than my 50+ year old body is willing to test • comfort: I can drive with the suspension set Sport and it's as smooth as other tires when set to normal stiffness.
I can't say anything about wear yet; but I suspect these will wear similar to the Pilot SuperSports; where they are great until about 12k miles and then start to fall off.
Summary: buy these, you'll love them!

...Tread-wear has been normal. For 30K mile tires, I'm about 1/2 way there for tread wear...
From all the tires I've bought in the past Forty years, these tires by far out-shined them all. Even during under-steering, there's still under control. Ride comfort is awesome. Noise level is very low compare to my previous, Continental Pro Contacts , Michelin Pilot All Season or Michelin A/S 3+. During heavy rain, I can slice through the water at a comfortable speed of 75MPH. Tread-wear has been normal. For 30K mile tires, I'm abut 1/2 way there for tread wear. Hope this helps.
