My S10 has 235/60/15inch Big O's on Pacer polished aluminum rims..My TA has 275/40/17inch Kumho ECSTA MX tires on the 17' stock rims.The Kuhmo's seem to be a pretty good tire.I have only had them on for a little while but they handle great and helped my traction problems a little.

245-50-hr16 kumho ecsta 711's on new style ZQ8 wheels.
I go through about 2 sets a years no matter what brand i get so value is as important as quality. I run copper radial GTs. I can duy 2 sets of thouse for what I can buy 1 set of goodyears or firestones for. the size depends on my mood.... usally the biggest thing i can stuff on the rims though. right now I've got 255s on the rear and 135s up front.
If I deside to lift my truck instead of lowering it i'll probally run a set procomps prerunner style tires.
Michelin XC LT4's on the factory rims (P235R70's) because the tire place fubared and put the wrong tires on the wrong truck.
Evenually I'll get a set of BFG Duelers for it, but thats down the road aways.

I actually got my Kuhmos for decent price.And they are better than Goodyears in my opinion.I was gonna buy BFGoodrich g-force T/A's but I got such a good deal on the Kuhmos I couldn't pass them up.I don't know much about the Kuhmos and actually I never heard much about them till I bought them.But the guys on LS2.com swear by them that they are a great tire.And so far so good they are a real good and sticky tire.

They don't make very much noise at all when doing a burn out.Sometimes I have to listen close to here them when im doing a good sideways burn out lol.
