Luke are you thowing these on the coupe? [Eek!]

I used to work at Americas Tire and would compare tires all the time. Pretty crazy how big a difference it is between brands. My Nitto 555r look tiny next to other 275's...

the bfg's are wider... thats why u can fit a 315 nitto on a 9 inch rim and have almost no bulge.. but when u mount a 315 bfg it bulges alot, just like that goodyear.....

luke, those are the gsd3's right?

Damn, that's a huge difference! I guess that's why I see 315's on Foxes now! Must all be running the Sumitumos. Well they're very cheap anyways compared to any other brand out there.
