Default 235/30/20 and 265/30/20 Tires (or 245/275)

I need some tires! Either close to new or new. Need two of each. Will also consider 245/30/20 and 275/30/20. No real preference on type as long as I can flip them after some camber wear.

I'd pick up or need them shipped to 28078.

You don't want a 235/30/20, I promise you! Not if you care about your rims. That is like no protection at all. I am running 255/30/20 and I am just asking for it. I would highly recommend 235/35 if you are going to go that narrow in the front. I run Toyo Proxes 4, they are an awesome tire for the money. I got 45K miles out of mine with a bit of negative camber.

Check out www.tiresdirect.net, they have that size you want for $172 a piece. You could then do a 295/30/20 in rear. You won't find much cheaper than tiresdirect.net, as log as you don't live in Illinois you also avoid sales tax. You might also want to check out treadepot.com, I have done a ton of tire research and looking around, you probably won't beat one of these two places.

Also may look at General Exclaim UHP, I have been told they are excellent for the price.

^I agree with you 100%. My only issue is low offset. I won't be able to fit larger tires.

235 is probably too skinny tho.... I need 245/275's.

Probably doesn't help because they are 245/35 but the price is right:

Please post your wheel specs. You would be amazed at how much tire you can put under those fenders. At first I was running a 255/35/20 up front, for about 5 miles, lol. It rubbed just the tiniest bit on the inner fender liner, and only when hitting a bump and turning at the same time, like pulling into a gas station or something like that.

go 235/35 and 265/30 general uhp. Falken 245/30 and 275/30 have good stretch which make them good for lower offsets. If you wanna spend monye go with toyo 245/30 and 265/30... tires easy has good deals on rear generals for 82 bux a piece.
