Default NItto Neo Gens...the answer to our tire wear?

I keep seeing their ads about how the new Nitto Neo gens are great for cars that exhibit negative camber that shows accelerated tread life inthe inside protion of the tire (sound familiar). I was wondering if anyone in the boards had any opinion or any experience with these tires. any thoughts and comments are appreciated. I know i'll be in the market for some new tires in about 12K miles....

Those are more for Civics with extreme drops that get real bad inside tire wear due to VERY excessive camber. They aren't really made in 350Z friendly tire sizes.
