Message:
I noticed that everyone on this board reccomends the Nitto 450 275/50/17. I've got the R/T wheels already but I wanted to know where the cheapest place to buy these tires. So far I found them for $135.00 a piece.

Xendak -- I have the Kumho ECSTA 711 tires 255/55R17's from www.tirerack.com. In my opinion they are great tires, they handle great and really grip. I'm sure they aren't as great as the Nitto's but the Kumho's for 79.00 each from tire rack are great. I've had them for about 6,000 miles already and they have no signs of wear. They are also directionals.

Thanks conig but I have two tires already that are 255/40/17 and I need the 275/50/17 for the rear rims to give my truck that serious agressive look. Thanks though

waterpolo: I was thinking about the kumho's but I wanted a wider tire than what kumho offers. My second choice were the kumho ecsta stx but they only offer them in the 255/50/17.

Xendak -- Yeah i know what you mean, Kumho does offer a 275 tire but its a 275/60R17 Thats a pretty big sidewall if you ask me. Well hope you get some tires that work for what you want.

Take care
