After working at Discount Tire for almost 5yrs I hated the pradas and they always came back with wear issues or slight vibration. Honestly, hankook has came a long way and i'd say they are they best bang for buck these days!

No he didn't wanna talk. I pulled into the home depot parking lot and sat for a min eating my chick fil a. He stayed across the parking lot staring at me. Then when I moved he would follow so I parked again. I did this for like 5 mins. Then I played the ole scooby doo trick and started following him. I don't think he seen that one coming. But I did park first and he wouldn't come over. I was just feeding my face. No bat or anything.

But diesel would be so awesome in a tahoe and like twice the mileage to boot. But for no she will remain gas. I need to get some better compression or something. My mileage sucks. Has since I bought it. It's better now than then. 19 highway with windows down no ac. Turn on ac and it's 14-15.

I ran a set of hankooks on my car. The read like they would be awesome tires. But onces installed there was no traction what so ever. You could spit on the ground and loose traction. Worse tire in the rain ever. Then I went to the nittos and wow what a difference. But that set of hankooks put a bad taste in my mouth. That's why I'm hesitant to get them to the truck.

If nitto made a sport tire in that size i'd say go with that. In the end, your the one driving the vehicle so its up to you
