Build Details

Cut to last week where I swapped them out with the same tire in a 235/50/18. This size is slightly smaller in diameter than stock but night and day different from the 55 profile of the previous tire. The handling is so much more firm and corners are crisp, driving is fun again! I had a chance to go through some heavy downpours and they cut right through standing water and stopping distance was excellent. I wondered if I'd be taking a hit in comfort with a shorter sidewall but they're just as nice as the larger size.
