    The c's were notorious for damaged side walls on trail runs.

    The thicker sidewalls also provide higher resistance to punctures/tears when off road.

    20psi in front left tire = $860 discount tire morning. Stuck with 265-75-16 so i could use one of my 3 good tires as full size spare. Totally got the replacement certs :eek:

    Kevlar sidewalls on goodyear wrangler silent armors didn't go so well. Dunno where its leaking from, possibly little gash on sidewall... But considering it lost 15psi in 24 hrs i'm pretty sure this was the right choice.

    That gash in your sidewall didnt look so great after the trail run sunday buddy!!!! Wonder if you did damage to your Schrader valve when airing down? maybe it never seated correctly and you were loosing air. Was the tire with the gash the one leaking?

    they're actually considered d rating, 285/70/17

    Yea it was gashed one leaking. Since i was on the way to work i didn't bother soaping it to see if bubbled. Could be coincidence but i didn't go lower than 25 i think it was. If i could go back in time to sears in november where i talked myself out of replacement certs... Slap!

    Nice thing is that in the last 3 weeks discount tire has honored DTD price and $50 'online only' savings twice, once on wheels and now on hankooks. Better than full price for sure

    If any of you guys have a little time to find a vehicle, my bro is looking for a truck, preferably 4 door and trying to stay under 10k. I'm in a chem school this week and don't have much time. Thanks

    Sean where did you end up going? I talked to Ken today about something else. Forgot to ask if you had called him.
    E will definitely help with the side wall and rocks. However I did put a rock through an E rated duratrac wall.
