Yea that's what I've been seeing too, which is kind of pushing it. I may just break down and buy them. A pair of the 305/35/20s are $555 shipped. I guess that's not horrible

EDIT-I may buy some other tires to have as "highway" tires. Most of the mileage I put on is from driving 400 miles to and from school. I do that 4-5 times a year at least.

I have 20x8.5s with 6" of backspacing. They tuck plenty fine. The 305s might be cutting it close though.
