Re: Glen, are your rims 7 inch wide?
I believe so.. stock setup. I'm not completely satisfied with the current look of the wheels/tires as well as the spongy ride. Would like to try some alternatives, but a bit reluctant to pour 3 to 4 grand into new H&Rs and wheel/tire package. I'm on the fence right now with what I want to do. Would be interested to hear more about what you've done. I can't get too agressive with the wheels as I live in Philly and the roads are horrible (I actually live on a cobblestone street that is a nightmare).

Re: Glen, are your rims 7 inch wide?
As long as you have 7 inch rims this set up will work. I used this tire setup because i commute to Jersey City daily, and the roads are horrible. The tires are high profile enough to absorb the bimps and protect the rims, and probably will take a really decent hit before giving out to a flat tire. Now there are only 2 tires in this size, pirellis and the Kumhos. I went with the kimhos because they were ranked best in class and got very high ratings, even in snow it was ranked really high for an all season tire. Let me get you some more pics..
