Yes the NT05 has a ton of dry grip and is pretty good in the rain. I have a pair on the rear now and I like em. They compare very well with Hankook RS3 for grip. The Nitto Invo is a goto tire for Corvette drivers and it is available in modern low aspect sizes. One of my friends has them on his 2010 Z06 and we spent the day running Chuckwalla race track together back in May. My impression is that the car is amazing and the tires are good but not great. Between the two I would choose the NT05.
