I paid 350 bucks a piece... LOL. Mainly cuz any kind of tire would be on special order only for my size rims (305/30/20) so it didn't really matter. dude, for 350 bucks you can't go wrong. Buy them. Even if you go to track later on, you can get a new track set, and leave these for everyday use, trust me, GOOD investment.

I don't have personal experience, but a good friend of mine has a set of n3000's and he loves them. Ive rode in the car and they are quiet too.

They are a horrible tire if you like grip. They are also the wrong size.

I've been rockin them for about 5 months now. Been great for the price I paid. I would prefer the federals over them but they are on a 3 month backorder so the nexxen's were the next choice:

I've run those in the rear before, but I wanted something that gripped better. They seemed to slip a lot. Now I'm running Nitto NT555's all around.

Your rear tires are .26" shorter than your fronts. You need to have a taller tire in the back. Listen to the advice above and put the 275/30 on the front and get new rears. You can go with a 275/35, a 285/35, a 295/30 or a 305/30 out back.

Like I said the 275/30 is actually shorter than your front tire. Im not saying you have to go that route, I was just trying to get some use out of your 275/30's. Just make sure your back tires are taller.

Skim through this thread and you will get the idea.
