Default Anybody Running these tires?

I've been looking around for awhile, but there's not much of a selection for a 20" tire with decent traction. Is anyone tried, or used these tires?

decent tires but they only last about 20-25k max.

Thats what i'm afraid of. But, i need anything better than my falkens. They'll last forever, but they have no traction. I can't find anything else really in a 20", w/ a 45 sidewall that isn't ridiculously expensive.

Get the BFGs but buy the certificates for free replacement. Once they get about 15,000 on them, go run over some nails somewhere.

Haha, run over some nails, thats good... take a look at these, i haven't looked at prices in awhile.. http://www.performanceplustire.com/p...678#prodAnchor
Traction to the ultimate with these, because of a soft compound, which means there not going to last a long time, but i have no complaints at all with these tires, they always hookup whenever.. Even on a rainy day... I've never had a hydroplaining issue doing well over a 100mph in a downpoor...

The link won't work for me?
Edit: The biggest sidewall i can find in those is 35 in those or the BFG's on that website.

Lets see if this one works
For some reason it didn't work for me at first either.....
Seems to work now.. They don't have all there tire sizes listed on the website, so you may want to call them...The tires i have aren't listed on the website...Because i have 22's, but there website doesn't show tires for 22's....
