Default Nitto 420s

I picked up a set of Nitto 420s 265/50-20s the other day. I must say that I am impressed with their dry grip. I can hard roll into it and not break loose. Before, once I hit 3500 rpm, I was spinning. I can feel the acceleration difference.

cool im running the 420s too but in a 305/50/20 I love them. I have 35k miles on mine (Went straight to the tire shop when I bought the truck) and they still have some life left.

I have not done any hard cornering, but I can tell I can carry a little more speed around corners.
