Nitto Motivo

Although I like the look of staggered wheels and a really wide back tire, my car is driven nearly 100 miles per day so Im thinking about going with 20x9 Forgestars on all four corners so I can rotate and get decent mileage out of the tires. Currently, I'm looking at the Motivo as it has a really good treadwear rating. Has or is anyone else using this tire? Your thoughts please.

Are you planning to track your car at all with these wheels?

Nothing wrong with that. I just asked because if you plan to track the car at all then you want to consider tires that can handle that kind of abuse.

That's of course perfectly fine to run! That's actually not a bad idea for a daily commuter that you drive quite a lot on, and I don't see anything wrong with running something like 255's all around for something cheap and cheerful

Checkout our Forgestar page for more info:

i've been running the forgestar F-14's 9.5x20 (x4) wrapped in nitto invo's for the exact same reason and couldn't be happier. i don't have any experience with the motivo, but im sure they'll suit your daily driving needs. good luck and keep us posted on your choice.
