    Thanks Obie! I don't know why I'm just now seeing your reply! Yeah, I've had them for a couple months now, and I'm beginning to get use to the singing they do! Also, something I never considered was that they are BY FAR the most hydroplane-resistant tire I've EVER driven. That says a lot...

    Another new guy

    Hey fellas. Name's Scott and I live in central MS. Just bought my second EX. It's a 99 Sport 4wd. For the first time ever, I was lucky enough to get one with good options. This one has 4:10s with limited slip! Let the mods begin!
