I know they're not ****'s.. lol I'll remember that Rock when I need something thats round, Rubber, and rolls.. Thanks

Freeky.. Yeah.. I WANT somthing smaller in diameter.. SMaller in diameter means lower overall gear ratio which = faster truck.. lol.. I want somthing wide enough to grip the road when I stomp it and somthing smaller in diameter to get me moving faster... I already have a boatload of bolt-ons..
