And you ain't got none. :fro: jk.

Bought them from Tirerack.com shipped for around $809. $70 rebate to come. $92 installed by local Firestone with lifetime rotate and balance. Arrived one day after ordering and installed same day.

Sorry but after outlaying some serious cake on new kicks for your ride you just can't help but brag a little bit!

Lets see em, I'm about to buy new shoes and not sure what I want. The MS 2's are a top pic, however I kinda want 255/75/17's to hopefully save fuel. Maybe you can help convince me

Congrats on your tires!! Those are the tires I'm slobbering after (no money now). What did you have before?

Just put a set of M/S2s on tonight -- just over $900 installed at Sears.

I've only put 10 miles or so on them, but I noticed an IMMEDIATE difference in road noise over the previous BFG Long Trail T/A shoes. Not enough road time to really know anything else about how they perform.

A couple shots in the daylight of the new shoes. Still haven't washed the car or cleaned the tires up.

Overall, very happy with the tires so far.

Looks nice !

Wondered why you didnt go with the AT's ? They are supposed to be a excellent snow , off road tire too.

Nice choice on the shoes though.....congrats

Cool, so how do you like them? What tires did you have on there before? Do they look any wider? I'm told these are wider than most tires this same size?

Also, can you take some pics in the day with them shined up?

I totally love them so far -- only a couple hundred miles on them (and only on wet and dry pavement), but they're noticeably better than my previous tires (BFG Long Trail A/T).

I do think they look wider and taller than the previous BFGs.

I haven't been in the dirt or snow yet, so I can't really talk about their performance there.

Jason, your PMs are full right now.

Cool... Does the taller sidewall make the rims look any smaller? I would also guess they might ride better over bumps with the larger sidewall.

I test drove a 06 Sport which had Michelin's (not sure of specific type) but they were also noticeably quieter then the BFG Long Trail AT's that are on my Limited.

I've already made the decision to go with the Michelins when these shows wear out.
