    Heh, you only had to buy 2. With 3K the fronts are still going to be in great shape!

    toyo's better then the nitto 420's? Just curious because i had the 420's on the rear at 285/40/20 and beat the hell out of them with burnouts this year and got maybe 5000 miles out of them. I was impressed.

    245s up front and 275s in back. My rear wheels are widened an inch.

    I remember how you drive!

    The fronts look brand new!

    I really can't express a decent opinion based on anything about the Toyos so far...other than they drive smooth. I SHREDDED those tires :)


    Lol. You all know how that goes..."ok, just one more time...then that's the LAST time I am going to do that...I gotta save some money here..."

    I would try them in a heartbeat. What got me to the Toyos was that the 245s up front and the 275s in back were the same height. I widened the rear rims an inch so that I could run a larger tire and maintain the same rim-to-tire look. At the time I couldn't find a 245/2XX combo that did that.
