New rubber

Got these from Discount Tire Direct. Hankook Ventus V12 EVO 255/45/18. They had the best price + $50 rebate on 4 tires. I read reviews EVERYWHERE for these tires, even C&D voted them #3 in a recent comparo. The funny thing is, a lot of people noted they felt really greasy in the first 50-100 miles. They were SCARY!!! Somehow after driving about 100 miles, they took on a totally different character and became super sticky. I feel much more confident pushing them than the OEM BFG's. Of course, they are summer rubber, so I'll have to find something if I plan to drive in the snow.

Looks good! Looks like your rims survived the mounting OK. I always cringe when I have to get new tires mounted.
