If you are looking for a good all-season tire and in the same size to replace the Pirelli's and in-expensive...Yokahama Parada-spec-x tires,although they are labeled as a sport truck tire.I have read many very good reviews of owners of Dodge Charger/magnum R/T's with 20" wheels using these tires on their cars.These tires have a 420 tread ware rating and a tread depth of 11/32(lotta meat)BTW,most of the owners in the reviews used to have Goodyears and what they had to say about them,wasn't good.

I have seen them priced from $130.00 to $160.00 each.I plan on buying a set for my SS and selling the Pirelli's.

This is the #1 reason I droped the RS package on my 2LT. It comes with 19" Pirelli all season tires. Now anyone know how good this all season is?
I thought it was stupid, even if you lived in Alaska you had to have "summer" tires.

They will probably make changes to the tire options as productions moves on. If not for 2010 then for 2011 for sure.

The main reason I diden't get a RS package is that you end up stuck with 20in summer pirelli tires. Most of the $1750.00 + 5% RS package is the tires.

I'll end up buying larger rims and tires anyway but for now these work.
