| I'd grab those in a second if I had wheels to put them on. That's a great deal |

| GL with the sale, id try craigslist. That's a good price your askin. I've seen Sienna's chew those tires up in less than 30k, you should be able to sell quickly! |

| Billy, how are these as far as road noise? We have a noisy set on the Suby, if these would fit and are relatively quite, I would grab them.

I know they were just starting to chop on the outside edges due to a bad alignment. They were a little noisey. A simple rotation would have fixed it. |

| I'll check her tire size and get back to you. Her tires are louder than my chopped up BFG All Terrains... it's incredibly annoying Doug | IMPALADAKID wrote: | | Pooge wrote: | Billy, how are these as far as road noise?

But will they fit on my stock rim? I might snag them for a set of spares. |

| If you have a 17" rim then they should fit. No guarantee on the fender clearance though. Same width but a taller tire. |

Would raise the car about an 1 1/4", and tuck in the fenderwells at the top the same. Could fit, but would throw your speedo off as Steve mentioned. |

Do you drive the VW in the winter? I always liked a tall tire in the winter and the larger diameter wont hurt there either. As far as the speedo... its a built in excuse... Officer I just put on these new tires & I THINK they messed up my speedo....DUH!
For the $ you cant go wrong |
