Nice Tires. General makes some really nice ones. Be sure to let us know how they do in the rain, I can't imagine to well with no siping.

i deffinetly plan on it, but im not too concerned with wet weather performance, its still a pick up and not a car so if it not perfect i wont be disapointed.

put about 40 miles on them lastnight and i can tell you that i have no complaints yet. seem to be getting better mpgs, but still too early to tell

there non direcional and the other side is all black like others. im running the red letters out because its gonna be alot easier for people to figure out wha they are instead of being asked a billion questions. honestly the red isnt over powering and grab too much attn.
