    I've had mine for just over a month. Great in an inch or two of slush, ice, and 10" fresh powder. Wet traction and braking makes the stock dunlops look stupid (though that's probably true of most tires).

    I have been experiencing a slight wobble at hwy speeds and they seem to track funny, but I am hesitant to go back to Discount for rebalance. They damaged all four of my brand new SCS wheels mounting and balancing the tires the first time. So, unsure if if balance issue or tire issue.

    I went from P245/75-16 dunlops on steel wheels to P265/75-16 on F-5s. Dropped 10lbs from each wheel, and gained 8lbs in each tire. Net loss of 2lbs at each corner. However, with the increased tire diameter, width, and mass now being further from the center, my mpg (adjusted to account for larger diameter/circumference) has dropped ~1.5 mpg. Your V6 probably wont take quite as big a hit to mpg.

    I also ended up with minor rubbing at near full lock, and had to trim a little from the inner lip of the fender flare. Wheels are 16x8 4.5" bs
