Brick... I am telling you the Vredesteins are everything you are getting in your Toyos and more (stronger sidewall), but around 15-20% cheaper

Good Job!
Good Job!
i posted this thread because i have specific needs regarding tires, and i was hoping those who also had those same requirements of their tires would chime in. i've read a lot of the threads in the wheel/tire section and there definitely is a lot of great info but i wanted to get some recommendations based off my SPECIFIC requirements.

I'm gonna chime in with my 2 cents and add the BFG KDW2 NT
1. Good price for what you're getting
2. 300 UTOG rating for tire wear
3. Very good wet and dry traction
4. Thicker side wall than most of the tires I've used, should help w/ the cosmetic aspect of your decision.
Downside:
1. It is probably louder than most tires, but not something unbearable.
2. Because of the thicker side wall, I did have to shave my rear fenders when I switched to these, even though they were same specs as my Conti Sports.
I use to run the GB LE37's in 9.5F and 10.5R. These tires really filled up the wheel well.

alright so i've read a few reviews on the vreds..i think i might be going with those, the price is just sooooo much better than the ps2's. plus there are a lot of ps2 fanboys out there, and while i know that they're great tires, i kind of want to try something new so that i can review it myself and be more honest and not just say everything's great because everyone else says so.
