Need tire suggestions

[BillBlatt18]

I have Goodyear forteras on my 20's right now in 275/55/r20 on OEM accessory 20's which I believe are 8.5 or 9 inches wide

I want something a little wider maybe and something with a cool looking tread pattern. I don't run them in the winter so really I'm looking for wet and dry performance and something that ill get good mileage out of. I was looking at the Nitto 420s but I've heard mixed reviews on mileage and noise. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated

You could run a 285/50/20 tire

Im having the same problem as you but I've narrowed it down to two tires the nitto 420 and cooper ht plus

I havnt heard anything bad abou the nitto 420s I will be getting them once I get rims. On my 24s I had sunny tires and they were great I had them for well over a year and no noticible wear and were not noisy.

Currently running 305/50/20 Nitto 420's and absolutely love them. My wheels are 10 wide but I think you'd be alright with a 295.

I love my new cooper Zeon Ltz's! Quiet with a nice AT pattern

How is the treadwear on the 420s? I've heard mixed things on life of them and noise

mine are quiet. I've had them for around 3k miles now and they have worn well so far. I will know more by this time next year as far as tread wear.

Do you have a pic of them? And what size are you running?

Thanks! They are my first choice right now in 285/50/20 the pattern is just sick looking

I'm running 20s so I'd need the 305/55/20 but am wondering how much sidewall there is to that

serge ran those on his denali for a while and he seemed to have plenty of sidewall. looked good!

55 is 55 I mean that Takes the wonder out. Now soft compound vs hard is another question but most tires our size aren't soft sticky tires for racing either
