Default More New Shoes - Vredesteins

Just put on yesterday but have to say I really like these tires and rims. I know about the craxis but I think its overblown. The vredesteins are very grippy and much quieter than the stocks and $300 les than the TR1 I was going to get. Tell me what you think.
19x8.5 /9.5 with 245-35-19 and 275-35-19.

vredesteins are becoming popular. Hope the vendors dont take it as an opportunity to increase the price on them.

Mine go on tomorrow.......295/30/19 and i cant wait.

I got them at a local rim / tire dealer on Long Isalnd. I don't think they do internet sales. Go to the Vredestein thread and get the website that they talk about. The dealer suggested the Vred's and I first said that I did not want to buy a noname and was going to get TR1's but after reading the Vred thread I went with them and I'm glad I did. Check out the Vredestein website to, it's pretty impressive.

Thats what I was also thinking, I am good for probably another year before I need to get a set of these tires. With many members here getting these tires I am sure the good prices are about to go up, well at least some of you are able to get a great deal.

Good choice in tires, from what I've been reading. Wheels, not so much.
