New Tires

Those look like 265's to me. 285's look REALLY meaty! Check out mine by clicking below.... they are the Yokos though.... I'd like to see the Kumho's in my size!

I bought the 265's from tirerack.com with road hazard for $524. I had a buddy put them on and do a front end alignment for $80 (last time he only charged me 60...inflation). I didn't do much comparison shopping.

I got the 265's instead of the 285's because I remember reading a post that all VXs are not the same. Some had to trim the cladding with their 285's while other didn't--maybe different tires? Wormgod had to do some light trimming with 285s (not Kumho's)...then changed to sweet rims and had to do some major trimming. Guess I am a bit conservative.

I would also like to see what I am missing. Driver3, got a pic of your 285s?
