Smile Got my new shoes today!!!!!

Ordered these on Saturday and they got delivered today!!!!!Gotta get some rubber for them thinking about either Toyo T1 or BFG KDW2. Im leaning towards the KDW2 but if anyone has any input on either let me know. I heard the T1s can be kinda noisy. Figured 245/35/19 up front and 275/35/19 out back. Oh they are 8.5 and 9.5. Cant wait till the weather gets better here toput them on.Thanks

The KDW2 are noisy too. I don't think you go wrong with either tires. Since you're waiting for the weather to get better, save up and get some z springs. We don't want to see your G not lowered when you install the rims.

Personally I wouldn't buy any other tires than Falken. Especially if you will be driving on those rims only in the summer.

The wheels look real good. Don't you mean 275/30 for the rear? And please lower it immediately.

why are you guys suggesting a smaller "middle" number for the tear, doesnt that mean less sidwall...or if u lower it its a less % of the width, therefore being equal to the amount of sidewall in the front???

Since the tires are so wide, the 35 profile will be bigger than the front 35 profile. Plus, the fender gap is bigger in the front, this will help it even out a little.

Ive had the BFG's and now I have the Toyo's. I gotta say, the Toyo's are a lot stickier than the BFG's. The BFG's may look better, IMO atleast, but the Toyo's are real hard to break loose.

I have that tire setup that you mentioned and it sucks. My VDC is obtrusive when turning hard or driving fast, when I say obtrusive it brakes for me and jolts my car on turns that I can turn my VDC off and haul on without losing my rear end. I would say go with 245/40/19 in front, thats what I am going to upgrade to when these are bald.

*edit* you can also go with 275/30/19 in rear and 245/35/19 in front, however this leaves very skinny tires on the car, if you want to fill in a little more gap, get the 275/35/19 rear and 245/40/19 in front.

Thanks for all the comments. They are a 40 offset all the way around. Yes I already have the Z unrevised springs. Ive had those since November just waiting on the weather for those to since we got like 5 inches on the ground right now. I want to go with a 35 because of the roads around here with allthe potholes and such here in Ohio. Grant the fronts are 21lbs and the rears are 22.2 lbs. According to my bathroom scale. What should i do about hub rings the guy told me that the size of the rim would be on the box or the rim and its not. So should i just call discount tire or something and get them from them or just wait till i get everything mounted and installed and get them then? Im new to this part never delt with them. Ok i think i answered everyones questions. Thanks
