    Need some help buying a new GT

    best place to buy nitto's

    If running 18x10's you really should look at the 295x45x18. I went with the 285x40x18 NT 555,, and while I'm not sorry i did, I think the 295x45 would look better. Anyone want a brand new set of 285x40's? :D JK'ing... really, I'd have to sell um cheap as a used tires, plus shipping, and...
