Hey I was curious as to what kinds of tires everyone is running, as I was looking at some new ones myself, I have a very good understanding of which one's I am probably going to buy, but was interested to see what else people are running  |

Federal's might be on back order again??? sometimes they have'em sometimes they don't. Call them up and verify, if they do...best bet is to stock up on them. Also, 235/40/17 went up in price to sixty something dollars

^^^^ online tire has the best price for them that i've seen so far at ~$65 a tire but they don't have any in stock. They do however have tons(50) of 235/45 which is why I'm buying them. The price for the 45's is ~$71 with about a 9 something shipping charge. so 80 bucks to your door.

yea, thats where I checked them out
the RS-3's weren't bad at all, about 130 a tire. Which I will pay for to have a much sticker tire that doesn't chunk and heat cycles very well

I ran the Hankooks and I personally didnt like them, but you should try to keep front and rear tires the same if your going to buy them...if you were using used tires, it would be a different story because you cant always choose what you get...Just my opinion though...Have you looked at the Nexen n3000s?

No, I haven't tried those, another friend suggested them too
you tried the RS3's and didn't like them ? I already ordered them so I will have to see what the deal is
If I don't like them, I'll try another set
