Question new tires..choices???

I was thinking about the Nitto invo, or the falken fk 452...My car is lowerd and the camber kit is set, and its deffinatly not easy on tires, so im trying to get a tire with the harder rubber inside line,with an excellent wet wheather rating..if you know of any other tire that will work with my setup, thats not 500 bucks a tire let me know.

If you need 18" tires I have a lot of GOOD tires sitting around from my old wheels that I need to sell. I have:

Kumho MX's
2x 295/35/18's
2x 245/40/18's

Bridgestone RE050A's
2x 245/40/18
2x 275/40/18

I would recommend these for 8.5/9.5 wheel combos. All of them have ~50% or more tread life left. You're more than welcome to come check them out.

Aceman should be able to vouche for me.
