Default The rellies

I dont think that they are complaining about the Perellies but the size of them. 235 55 is an econocar or sorta sporty sedan size. Id suggest (dependent of ur funds) P zero Rossos, BFG G-Force(wet and dry) or Nittos Id suggest 245 45 at the least and even better 255 45. Its gunna run u up atleast 8 or 9 Buck though

Why ditch them now? Shop around until you put a few miles on them. The hard way if you like. Those aren't bad tires.

True.. I have heard all of good things about the BFG G-force..if you look at one of my other threads.. i'm still trying to decide which rims to go with... I like the black bullitt rims or I have seem these others that are also bullitt style and in black chrome...

Thumbs up Keep for Now

So far for me my Pirelli's are doing fine. I was surprised at how well they did in a recent ice storm here in Atlanta. Combined with the Traction Control System, I had no problems getting around with my GT.

I was a bit amused at some SUV's becoming immobile while attempting to navigate the icy roads. Give someone a 4X4 and they just get stuck even worse.
