Default New tires! (pics)

BFG AT 31x10.5x15. The old ones were 235/75/15 I think, so its not a huge step up in size, but definitely a huge step up in quality.

I coulda fit 33s, but I couldn't afford it and I think that would make the truck undrivably slow without a new gearset. These babies ought to last a while, so I'll worry about that the next time around.

$524 installed at Costco. Everywhere else in town quoted me $610, so my mommy hooked me up with her costco card. h:

yes, my roommate is a certified Saab freak. He's actually a partner/engineer for an aftermarket Saab performance company. Nifty car, but not my style.

Yeah they torque steer like whoa. I've never really understood why someone would own one but they're pretty cool.
