So I bit the bullit and got a new set of tires...   Look great on the truck IMO.

They do look like nice tires. I always prefer tires with OWL

Yeah man your tires look really good...btw not to hi-jack your thread, but I've always seen in in your signature that your wheels were painted, and this is the first time I've seen them, how did you do it? Like what did you use cause if I can do that it'd save me so money in stead of buying rims...lol

They are 255-70 R16's

But the tread is deep,  so they are a little taller than that...


For the wheel paint (which I need to re-do now) I went to auto zone and got some of the duplicolor wheel paint.  3 coats of color 2 coats of clear.


I am going to re-do them in a few weeks...  need to decide on how/what/when though.


Oh yeah,  and they ran me 108 a tire,  but since I paid cash I got a 5% discount.

Not bad...  the shop did them for 438 and some change, and checked the alignment to make sure everything was still where it should be.

After driving to work and around for work...  they ride a lot nicer than stock g/y's...

Daytons are good tires, I had a set on my 1990 LeBaron and they rode really nice.  Given they were car tires but they held up through Iowa weather.
