Well 2 of them anyway. The other two should be in within the next week or so.(Seriously who only stocks 2 tires of a size and not 4?) Anyway here are some shots of them off the truck. I will get them installed when I get the other 2. Road tests to come!

Here are the specs...

And the truck is runnin rich. so the exhaust turns her black. Just a quick polish and you never know.
