aaaannnnd.....these http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....omCompare1=yes

I have those (the SRIXON4) and I like the handling of them I can corner much harder than I initially thought Bonnie could (with out squealing them). But the sidewalls are a bit stiffer than most and will in-turn stiffen the ride a bit. Oh and if your looking for quiet tires these are not the right choice, I just turn my Empeg up more. :twisted:

i was actually leaning towards the second ones. well im not leaning toward anything right now because i dont need tires yet. but the second ones got way better reviews. and i dont care about tire noise. just crank the stereo more.

Check into the Yokohama Avid Touring on the same site. Very good ratings, I bought 4 for the 95 $350 out the door with roadhazard warranty and mounting/balancing. Real smooth quiet ride and they stck pretty well when pushed. Not quite the same as driving the SSEi with the Goodyears, but for the cost, nice value.

ZR... cop tires! :lol:

i think that on my daily 10 miles or so of gravel road that those tires would just disentigrate. :)

10 miles of gravel?? Get some knobbies!! :lol:

actually not a half bad idea :D but its like 5 or 6 miles one way. and then of course back the other way. i usually drive between 25 and 30.try to stay closer to 25 though unless im in a hurry. now if im drivin the ranger its more like 35-40. we used to get flats all the time with wussy tires. my dads got some like 8 plys on the ranger and not a single flat. but man do they ever suck in the snow!! the tread pattern is very similar to the front tires on most 18 wheelers. but i do need something that will hold up to a little abuse.

And what do these run for 17s?

I can get 'em here at Wally world for about $130 a piece mounted and balanced.
