Default Just wondering about tires.......

I know, I know but just for the street....not drag or track. But it appears the Federal 335/30/20's RPM's will be no longer available. So, has anyone tried these

Lexani LX-Twenty 345/25R20 100Y BSW Tires

and what kinda results (ride and noise comfort) for the street did you experience? Tire calculator says they are .6 wider and near the same height. Thoughts on fitment issues?
Just wondering, its Sunday nite and raining. Please, no need any lightning strikes...........

Best. Tom.

Why not go with the proven AS3 plus?

I give another vote for the A/S 3's just for street use. I've never heard of the Lexani's you are displaying. I run "regular" MPSS for daily unless I have my drag radials on.

I second the Conti's...when my current set of AS3's are done, i'll be switching to these. I've run them on previous vettes, bmw's, and a few other cars. Great tire, and much better ride than AS3's IMHO. Quieter, as well.
