You are going to love those tires! I was trying to get them in 305 40 22 but they are on back order so I went with the Firestone Destinations.

Mount em up!

Would you mind telling me where you got them from? Being from Canada, tire selection is so limited. Did you buy it here or the US?

I had to call a lot if places and they were on backorder everywhere. Try 1010tires.com I know it's a different size but you never know.

Edit: oops just read everything and saw you already got tires

Here's the pics. Nothing exciting but if anyone is wondering about fit they fit perfect. Ride seems great and they look great.

These tires are a win in my book!

I have the same ones for 6 months now. I find them a bit noisy, but happy overall.
