Have you or anyone ever bought from them? They seem to have some pretty good prices and a good selection.

I'm a bit weary of $78 tires though.

No everyone can afford to spend $550 for 2 tires that last only 10,000 miles.

The Proxes are around $150 in the size I want. They have a 420 treadwear rating which leads me to believe they are pretty hard.

Unfortunatley, they stopped making the STI's. The STII's look like ****. I wouldn't pay $150 for them.

I'm running 274 45 R20 up front and 295 45 R20 BFGs in the rear... With my caltracs I dont have and traction issues....






It gives the truck a nice stance and the rear tires line up perfect with the fenders
