Houston, TX 77092 Phone: 800-586-1311. But you have to have an extra set of wheels so they can widen them. I had mine widen 2" and I have not had a single problem. It rides damn good and the tire you wanted in your first post is what i have, and it looks like I could go w/ a 325 tire if I wanted FYI

Im running 275/40/17 555r's on an 8" wheel. I think you could easily step up to a 295. The 275 fits great I think.

Wheels of American wanted $250 per tire to widen mine an inch. There was another place around here that gave me the quote of $150 per wheel.

I dont know about the MT's, but Nittos a ******* great in the rain. I think they are much safer in the rain as far as acceleration traction. Freeway is the same as street tires on mine.
