265 isn't that abit of an oddball size, i know 255 and 275 are common
true, there isn't as many choices in the 265 size, but a lot of people had issues with rubbing with a 275, and since I autocross I wanted the widest tire I could get.

Can't wait for good pics tomorrow!

They look like crap IMO.

I don't like the wingless look. If you do remember I kept the wing on my SRT too.

so how u like them thar tires?
Posted: Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:58 pm

The down draft spoilers and wingless trunks just look incomplete on an EVO. I like as close to stock look as possible. So the wing will stay.

They're pretty good so far.
I've only had a couple chances to open the car up with all that has been going on recently.
From what I have experienced....
1) Absolutely no tire squeal when taking corners hard
2) Almost no sliding or rear end breaking loose when pushed at speed.
3) Very crisp turn in and decent steering feel when moving.
4) Terrible steering feel and response in parking lots and in traffic.
5) Car just absolutely moves when you hit the gas, grips like crazy
6) Tires are very noisy during everyday driving.
7) Can definitely tell they are an XL load rated tire.
thats it for now.
