Nice choice. Better start moving some supplies into the dog house. Might be there for awhile.
Your going to like those tires. They have it all. Good traction, low road noise, and look fantastic,, ;)

StarsnBars is right, those tires are amazing, I've already put a little over 2K miles on my set, they ride like a dream!

Make sure you bring plenty of canned food with you, you might be stranded there for a little while. :lol:

Couldn't tell ya how many miles I have on mine, but they are just starting to make noise (which is fine because I only can hear them with the windows down and the stereo down low; did I mention, the radio is ALWAYS loud).

Sway? Ask the cop that stopped me this week if I was swaying? Those are 295/65/18. I have a leveling kit. They rub. I don't care because eventually I will get a lift kit.

Thanks stars! Been searching for tires now been looking at your tires. Your tires are bad ass but its to heavy for me. Nitto weighs 70 and dura are only 55lbs.

those tires look good on there! i have seen alot of people say those tires have soft sidewalls or something they say they seem to flex while turning and stuff? have you noticed anything like that? i have been undecided on what tires i wanna run and those look nice! do you have any close up pics of them? where do they rub at on yours?

I'll bite. Mine seem to flex slightly while taking turns at pretty fast speeds, but if you think about it, tires ARE going to deform just a little bit while you're using them. Why do you think the bottom stays flatter on the road while the rest is still round? I'm thinking that the noise I'm hearing while turning (noticed it particularly in the parking garage at work) is just because the tread pattern on the side of the tire is JUST clipping the pavement enough to make the noise. Nothing to worry about, it's just typical. I didn't need to go with the 10 ply tire, that's too much for me, the 6 ply will do me just fine, but that might contribute to the slight flexing as well.
