Less than $154 a piece shipped to my door... i can't complain at all... I got two of them and if I get to the track, I will just put my NT555's on the rear.

Thank you cthunder55.

I was a little concerned at first, but I read all the FAQ's and pages on the website and they seem way on the up and up...

 

how long is the estimated shipping time?

 

mine said 2-4 days... Guarunteed 7 days.

 

How well do they handle in the rain?? I might be interested in trying them since they are so cheap compared to the others.

I will let you know for sure... But most seem to thing that they are better than f1's in the rain and snow (they are m/s rated) but won't hook up as well on an unprepped track.... I still use NT555's up front and will just put them on the back when I go to the track.

 

The tires are summer tires and rated "V" rather
than the "Z" rating the F1's carry so I would expect that
they would be cheaper. "V" is good up to 149 and I
don't think the average "L" owner would run much faster
than that ...

Good Find ...

 

What the heck is "mit Felgenschutz in preparation"

 

not sure, but they called to confirm my order today and they had an international number come up on my caller ID... so I guess they are world wide... They told me the tires are shipping tomorrow and will be here friday or monday and they are sending me a tracking number tomorrow.

 

Its good to have another option. With the L going away who knows how hard it would be to get tires since I think Lightnings and Roush trucks were all that came with our size making it a small market for tire manufacturers.

 

Have had them on the truck since last may, they wear like iron, have great dry traction however when its wet thy can be scary. but then again so were my f1's. they are well balanced from the maker (two tires didnt need any weights and the other two used small ones) they also feature a rim protector which is nice, as far as track times go i cut a better 60 fot with the f1's but only by 1/100 of a sec, granted with the stall i cant seem to get anything less than a 2.033 60' time, would i buy them again, yes i paid 160 bucks a piece and at that price and how they have worn ( especialy with the many many john force burnouts i have done) they have been good tires. and the contact patch of the tire is pertty big as well when you burnout it leaves one solid 12 inch wide mark as opposed to 5 seperate lines like the f1's but i assume thats how they hook as well as the f1's tires not as sticky so they just put more contact patch. any way i like em.

At least 295/40-20s are/were used on some other vehicles.

But I wouldn't expect the market for 295/45-18s to disappear anyway. With the trend towards big wheels, I suspect that it will again be used by something. But if I ever have to stoop to putting tires named "Hankook," "Kuhmo," "Heung Ah," "Samwon," "Dong-Ah," or anything similar on my "American" (actually, Canadian) truck, it may be time to sell.

BTW, Cliff: "mit Felgenschutz in preparation" means "with rim protection in preparation."

 

What about Pirelli tires?

 

Pirellis come on this:


Wonder what shoes this stylish Korean stallion from Kia wears?



Or this hairy-chested chick magnet from, gulp, Daewoo:

 

They have them here to. www.dantewheels.com

 

Ordered them Sunday night around 10 pm and I had them delivered Wednnesday.... That was faster than I had imagined.
