Tires

I'm looking for some suggestions on some new tires. I'm not really looking for tires with mileage warranties as I only have put 200 miles or so on the car in the last 2 years(its not a daily driver). I do plan on getting the car out of the garage more but not a ton more. Looking for something with great grip. Discount tire has recommended the Nitto invo's. What are peoples thoughts on the Nitto's? My current tire is the BFG g force KDW but they are being replaced do to the sidewall dry rotting. I am also thinking about going from 225 to 235/40 18's. I have been out of the scene for far too long to know what the new thing is.

If it helps to have a little back story on the car, here goes. The car is tuned with catless dp, and has charge pipes along with a modded stock intake. The clutch started slipping a little under full boost and I was busy at the time so the car got parked in the garage and I lost interest. I am re-gaining interest so the clutch is getting replaced and I think a re-tune for e85 of some sort is in order. Any help and advice will be greatly appreciated.

Can't offer up any info / feedback on Nitto, but the replacement for the BFG KDW is the GForce Rival. You can read our most recent test results here ;
