Every tire dealer says they are really good. I want to make sure that they just aren't filling me full of **** because they are trying to sell me a higher priced tire.

That's one thing that I was wondering about also. I don't know if the 235 35's would fit on the 19's. I don't think it's been attempted before.

Would you say their better than the neogens? That's what I have now.

They have a 300 treadwear rating which shouldn't be too bad.
