tread looks amazing, what is the stock tire size? the larger the tire I go with I enjoy using 255'* for a wider feel.

good tires in the rain and dry, snow..not nearly as good as a blizzak.

I didn't realize that we could fit a tire that wide on our cars, sweet...........

Did you notice and increase/decrease in MPG with the size change? What about the speedo?
