it was better but the rain washed most of the mudd off.

i got them through a family discount. it was $630 total with $65ish mounting and balancing. about $140 per. i was gonna go to treadwright, but i thought id call my great uncle and see what he could do. he is a cooper tire rep, and i feel better payin a bit more and gettin name brand tires.

Looks good. I'd plan on getting new ball joints soon... or your just going to start cupping that new rubber.
