I think i'll be getting ready to order some wheels real soon and imma need yalls guys help on helping me choose a tire. Im lookin for a 275/45/20 that are a good price and all around good tire. I don't need anything too sticky, i mean as long as there as good as the stock ones since its just a 4.8L with intake and muffler, nelson tune later on. So basically, it's gotta have a nice tread design, grip as good as the stockers, and good price.

Oh, and does anybody know about these Kumho Ecsta STX tires? there cheap, and look nice!

 

i had general grabbers when i had the JGP 20's on my truck. tires looked all athletic and shiznit...too bad the truck didn't back up the tires/wheels

 

the generals are about the best price and in my personal opinion the way to go,
unless you need the absolute nth degree of performance ,none of the expensive tires
are worth the extra loot, they just don't last, w and z rated tires are soft..period and they don't last imho, might as well spent less $ and change them a little more often.
i've got hancooks on mine and they work good but i'm luckly if i get 20k miles out of them, i had pirelli scorpions before and got 10k on a very pricey tire.

 

how long should the grabbers last? still no comment on the kumho ecsta?

 

i have toyo proxes S/Ts i payed $446 for 4 of them shipped, i put them on and balanced em.
they are 275/60/16 V rated. I love them.
PM me for website if you want it..

Later,
Jonathan

 

i vote for the grabber uhp's. i have had mine about a year and they are holding up well. not a ton of miles on them yet. but i really like these tires. enough to buy them again.

 

The Kuhmo tires are great tires. where do you live?
Maybe I can help you out if you live by me.

i acutally live in the woodlands, right outside of houston. I could use some help.

 

I had a set of Kuhmos myself and they are nice. I have also had a few sets of Toyos an while they are a pretty good performing tire they dont last. my next set will be Generals

 

I Have The Kumhos and love them. The tire rack sells them pretty cheap. they perform pretty damn good, some of the curves on the way too and from work I take pretty friggin fast and these tires hold my heavy a$$ truck very well. Oh and they have a 149mph rating, Not that I would go that fast, But, Now I know I can, IF I had that much POWER, LOL. Kumhos get my vote for the money$$$$$$$
