Those people are concerned about the price, the toyos are 250 a piece, the goodyears are 140 a piece. With price you get performance.

i just got my wheels and tires put on.
I got the 275/45r20 and they look great.
The goodyears have the same speed rating and tread wear and traction ratings at the toyos as well.
So i didnt see what would justify the higher price except for the *sporty* tread pattern.
I find the 275/45 GY size to look better- i think the 265/50 would just look to tall- and detract from the wheel size.. making 20's look like 18's.
Im happy with my choice. and im glad i didnt go w/ the toyos.
