that picture makes me glad i dont have a 4th gen rear in my car anymore.

and bubba, im not going to get into a debate with you but if your tires have a 440 treadwear, and when you heat them they get "gooey," you will most likely have even less traction...there is a difference between sticky heated and greasy heated.

you didn't need a freaking truck tire that was meant for snow and mud, thats for sure. Why not stick to normal tires?
