stinkers

I've never liked Pirelli's.

No big fan of Nitto's either.

Why not a Toyo Proxes 4? Super tire, and cheap. Just don't know about that size.

I run the Pirelli in this same size on the rear of my car. I have nothing bad to say about them. They hook up well, not too much noise and the wear seems reasonable.

Like Steve, my preference was for the Toyo Proxes 4. Unfortunatley, they do not make them in a 295x22.

go Toyo

The best I've run have been the Toyo Proxes 4.

275/40/20 fits an SRT8 perfectly, is within a quarter inch of the stock diameter, and HOOKS UP!

You won't be disappointed.

apples and oranges...but do you like scorpions for winter? I run the proxes 4s almost exclusively, but they're not really up to a Wisconsin winter...and Blizzaks don't come in my size...

I just put new 20" Viper Wheels on my SRT with Nitto 420's in size 285/40x 20 on the rear and I am very happy with them. I was running the stock RSA's and I could not believe the difference it made. I also run Nitto's on my 06 Z06 and they have also performed flawlessly.

18" Scorpions obviously on different wheels for this car in the winter. Never have let me down. Darn it, almost time to get those things changed out, because the Toyos are really starting to spin now with just a little throttle. I was driving in Iowa two years ago off the interstate, would have not believed I could push snow and keep it moving if I did not do it myself. Good idea to get the stock wheels off due to the salt.
