    Car tires? Mkay,.. well.Yeah,.. lots of tires on the web sites.

    I still dont understand the purpose of this post.

    If I could interject a suggestion,.. might I add that spell check, grammar and proof reading before hitting the post button really goes a long way for the comprehension of others.

    In the 17.5 tires,.. my carrier swears by the Continentals and are all he will buy. Though I dont recall which specific tire he uses.

    I just bought 8 for my MAC,.. but they are 255/70 22.5 and I just got them so I havent had enough time to develop any opinions.
