Re: Tire dealers Please Read

I got the bid on ebay for the coys 20x8.5, someone else bid in the last few seconds but I got one over him , hope it wasn't anyone here !! I did really want the Boss 338 but they don't have the backspace I need, I'm sure I'll be very happy with these
all I goto do now is decide on some tyres

Re: Tire dealers Please Read

I have found through the years that the reviews/feedback on the Tire Rack (www.tirerack.com) website are a great resource. I have purchased tires based on the feedback on their website, four times now and every time I have been completely satisfied. I believe the Generals typically rate much better than the Goodyears. I just purchased my first set of Generals based on Tire Rack reviews and once again, I am totally satisfied.
