Well, got my Sumitomo HTR+ 225/45/27's on today.

1) definately smoother....also seem to take bumps better then the stocks

2)Seem to have gotten quiter now that I have put couple of miles on em'

3) the look cool as hell...real agressive looking


negative:

For some reason the make my wheels look smaller and the wheel gap look bigger the 4x4 look looks even worse :'(
......guess that means i'll have to get springs as soon as i get my next paycheck

 

oh my goodness... you have 27" rims?????

 

No rubbing on 27's?

 

hahahah....they look fat as hell!!!

 

damn, you must be tuckin' like mad, yo

 

This shouldnt be a suprise if you've done your homework.

Sumitomo HTR+ 225/45WR17 revolutions/mile = 834
Michelin Pilot HX MXM4 215/50VR17 rev/mile = 819

Closest size to stocks are...

Sumitomo HTR+ 235/45WR17 = 823
Sumitomo HTR+ 245/45WR17 = 814

But both require 7.5-9.0 inch rims. Personally I would of gone with the 235/45WR17 since it's only 4 revs/mile off.

 

Yeah, I agree with edgalang, I spent way too much time deciding and ended up going with 245/45/17. They look really good and ride so much better then the Khumos I took off. Much more quiet.

 

uh oh....i guess me fucked up!!!

 

Is there another thread about this?? Like how much $$$ and where??

 

i went with stock size sumi-s and i love em. i think the bigger(wider) tires look like shit.
