What about Nitto Extremes? I used to run these on my Mustanng. I know there was a thread where a guy posted Nitto DRs Vs. BFG DRs and the Nittos were a 315 and the BFG were a 275. the Nittos were jsut a bit larger, so thy are a narrower tire

let me see if i can find the pic:

If your car is like mine, just a summer cruiser than I would say KDW, I have them and have no complaints yet.
