The new Nitto NT05 is a maximum performance tire that was developed using advanced computer simulation and extensive on-track testing. These development methods along with rigorous quality standards help produce a street tire that provides precise and responsive handling and performance
TECHNOLOGY
- Reinforced shoulder tread blocks provide exceptional rigidity and stability
- The continuous center rib consistently provides optimum tread contact with the road to maximize dry performance
- The specifically formulated tread compound and reinforced internal construction emphasizes dry road response, traction, handling, and high speed capabilities
Nitto released the familiar NT555 over 10 years ago, and set the standards for UHP tires with its class leading contact patch and superior grip.
Seeing the evolution of contemporary performance cars, Nitto created the NT05 for higher horsepower cars looking for more of everything. The NT05 has an all-new tread compound that enhances traction, a large continuous center rib which increases the contact patch and reinforced shoulder blocks. All the new NT05 features translate in to real numbers*: 38% more cornering force and 34% more lateral stiffness compared to the NT555. Those are numbers you will feel through the steering wheel with quicker response, crisper turn-in, and improved grip.

Thanks for the clarification. I'm trying to decide on my next set of tires. I appreciate the response! 
That's what we are here for! Will you be racing your F at all? What are you looking for out of your tires? If your F is a daily driver, the Invo may be the tire for you.Thanks for the clarification. I'm trying to decide on my next set of tires. I appreciate the response!
I would like to race it sometime. When I decide I will, I'm going to purchase a set of tires just for the track
The F is my daily driver. I'm in Texas where we have random, crazy rainstorms every once in a while and I'm worried about traction issues with the 05's which is why I'm seriously looking at the Invo's

The NT05 should have decent wet traction but I wouldn't suggest this tire for you since it's a daily driver. I think the Invo will be perfect for your driving conditions and this model has great wet traction. What's nice about the Invo is it utilizes a semi continuos asymmetric tread design so it really never looses grip when maneuvering. It also has the perfect sidewall construction for performance handling and overall ride comfort. Check out this thread on the InvoI would like to race it sometime.

When you're ready for your track set up, let us know. I would run the NT05s for sure!
