I really dont want to put anything else now. Im afraid that if I go with generals or anything else, it will just look like mismatched tires. I dunno maybe im crazy lol

The 305/45's are on 22x8.5" +14mm offset Eagle Alloy Series 26 rim. Be warned on STOCK front end these will rub in extreme cases. Obviously not a best et rim either but i was goin after looks, and they look big, they are 33inches tall and a foot wide.. Happens to be the same max size tire all the way around, which works good for rotating obviously. You can fit a 325 series tire on the back easily i'm sure, but would need the rim width to support. i could still break these 22's loose easily with my 4.8 but it had close to 10lbs through it, you can always spin street tires with a truck, they are light in the rear.. With 20's you can run 305's easily, i have a stock 06' on 20's with 305 50 toyo open country's on all 4 corners no rubs, 5.3 won't spin those... even at brake stand is questionable.. You have to sacrifice one way or the other, looks or performance, big heavy rims aren't gonna be as speedy, you will have to overcome that with power, but keepin it as wide as possible with a good street tire like these that are balanced once won't dissapoint in traction or wear.

So you went with the Falkens? I got mine from Midland discount too (out on the loop??) And I had to get them rebalanced about once ever 3 weeks.... But now that I'm here, and get them balanced and rotatd at Discount in Beaumont, they're fine. I've just got either a hub bearing or a tie rod end taking a dump now I think... Lots of slack somewhere, just haven't wanted to pull the frontend apart and chase it down.

Im in san angelo right now. I will complete my set with two more falkens. I usually run right around 38 pounds. at least on my yokos. Ive heard discount just runs the **** outta their balance machines, but never checks the calibrations or truness. I dunno??
