    I have Michelin LTX AT2. I have had very good luck with Michelin LTX M/S tires as well. I had a set of BFG AT KO's once. I liked the BFG's for their looks and their abilities in mud. However, the dirt/gravel roads just chewed them down to nothing in no time flat. 35,000 miles and they were done. I really like my AT2's, but if you love money in your wallet more, look elsewhere. I have never regretted buying expensive tires. I have many regrets about buying inexpensive tires though. The old adage of you get what you pay for holds very true with tires. In my estimation at least.

    I did it again. Got tired of paying truck payments and gas and traded in for a 2015 Honda Accord Sport since I enjoyed my 2013 Sport so much.

    It's the wife's T4R so it's stock
    As far as I know a 305 would require MAJOR cutting, etc. to get them to fit and not rub... Max with 3" lift is a 285/75/16.

    3" revtek lift (6" lift coming soon), Rancho RS5000 shocks, magnaflow catback, K&N intake.
    mine are toyo M/T 275/70/18s n i had to do quite a bit of trimming in the front. i only have the revtek 3" lift for now. i love the tires!!! great on road use. not too loud at all! off road use is ridiculous good. they grab anything and everything. but the lift kit is another story. the spacer lift changes the spring rate n makes the ride alot stiffer. it'll do if you jus want the lifted look to throw on sum bigger tires but i wouldnt recommend a spacer lift for off-road use. currently saving up for a TC long travel suspension kit with some fox remote res. coilovers. kinda pricey but DEFINATELY WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!
