Default New tires

I ordered some tires tonight. Nitto Terra Grappler A/T's. I ordered them from Discount tire and read a lot of reviews of all the tires in the past couple weeks. I choose these because they were a decent price and had very good reviews about wear and being good in snow and mud (I do a lot of driving in the snow between living in CT and going to school in VT). I think they are going to look really aggressive as well.

They're rated for 50k. All the reviews that were negative were from people using them on 2500's and what not. Apparently they wear fast if used on those bigger trucks because of the weight, but that is obviously not the case with me. So I'm pretty sure they will work well on my midsize dak.

I drove home tonight from my calculous 2 class and its raining. Bald tires + rain + rwd... ooh baby that was fun.

Oh and I'll def. do a write up on them once I put a few miles on them, short term. Also I will do a along term one, once I've put some decent miles on them 10k or so and have driven in some snow and what not.
