Default Invos on front, NT05r on Rear?

Is it okay to run Invos on the front and NT05rs on the rear? I am thinking about getting some drag radials and I would prefer not to change all four tires. The front tires are in good shape.

I do plan on running these all the time. I don't drive in the rain unless I am caught in it. Car is a nice day type of car.

While you can definitely do it, I'd suggest running the normal nt05s up front, at least then you'd have a somewhat matching set of tires. IMO the crazy tread pattern of the Invo tires would look out of place with the 05r tires in the back.

I am running NT05R 345's on back, as I just got a S/C put on. Great vertical stickiness, but it has altered the handling of the car to a point of me losing confidence in it. They are bouncy, and I can feel the car (and my neck) sway at speed on the hwy. I am going to go to the standard NT05's for the street.

FYI YMMV.
