    Ok...so....The Toyo's are on a national backorder in the 275/40R20 size. So, I instead purchased some Hankooks....

    I haven't heard anything about them...but that also means I haven't heard anything BAD about them either. I'll post a review about them after a month or two of driving on them.

    Surprisingly, they are pretty good. I have a high tread wear rating as I needed some longetivity out of them. But, despite being a harder compound, the grip is fairly good, and wet weather driving is good as well.

    Also, after having them on my car for almost a year and over 8000 miles later, the tread is still very very good. Based on that, I'm sure I can get another 15K+ miles before replacements will be necessary.

    So...for the price I got (~550 bucks to my door...free shipping :grin:) they were/are a very good deal.

    What What What??!?!?!? When did that happen.
