hey guys and galls. If your like me your getting nervous with winter coming around and you still have to drive your lightning in the snow. Well i wasnt for swapping rims and tires so i was looking around to try to find a needle in the hay stack by trying to find a rated winter tire on stock 18 inch rims. Well i found that needle when i looked on Discount tire and found the Nitto 404 style. It is v rated and believe it or not it is Mud and SNOW rated. The size that closest fits the stock goodyears is 285/50r/18. I hope your sitting down for the next part. Lets just say the goodyears are 215 a tire these bad boys that are all weather around and v rated are going for $127.00 a tire. thats right for 500 bucks i have deep thread, snow safe, speed up to 150mph and can hold 5000 punds in weight. How bout that for a 18 inch 127 dollar tire.

 

Whats snow?

But serious if I need winter tires, those sound awsome.

I was thinking of jus switching tires, too, and keeping the rims. I was wondering, though, do you think the salt up here would damage the rims or eat away at the clearcoat over them?
