Got a quote today. Tire guy informed me the same info I keep reading....I'm going to hate the unloaded ride. He showed me his most aggressive tires too. Not super impressed, but I get it, these tires ...

Oh and just got back home with my new to wheels and tires. Found a guy with a set 50miles from me with only 10k on them for $1200.
Great deal!
Thanks I thought so.
Here is another question. My spare is a factory 265/75/17.
So, being these tires are pretty massive, and the spare won't work as I have a limited slip in the rear and the size difference is pretty extreme (31" vs. 35"). Would I be insane to lose my spare, keep my AAA RV plus, a plug kit and some tire slime? With the extremely tough carcass of the new tires....I honestly won't have a compressor that could blow one of these up if I wanted.
I'd lose the weight from carrying a spare that won't help me and I ahve tires that are pretty hard to kill.
Stupid idea? I can't carry a spare this size on my truck......
