I'm contemplating picking a set up I'm coming down from 37" tires to a 35 and they make a 325/55R22 still not sure if I wanna do a 22 or a 20 inch rim tho
Pretty sure Anthony is or was on his LMM, cut crazy 60' with them too. Said he liked them better then anything for traction.
Not that it's even close to the same but I have the parada spec x on my wife's murano. They have 60k on em and it's snows like a mofo here in wyoming and even with the small amount of tread that's left they do great in snow/ice. Dry is even better and they don't wear bad....but this is also on something with alot less power and weight

That's why I was wondering. Have them on the fx35 in a similar size (295/45/20) and they're great. Don't know about snow though because it gets snow tires in the winter.

They do awesome in the snow....case in point, my wife is from Fresno, CA and never drove in snow. We got this murano after she tried to pile up her RWD Mercedes multiple times. The murano had these parada put on by previous owner at 2k miles and now at just shy of 62k they have 15% life left and she can drive in the snow now problem.
I corner the shit outta the car in them, it's pretty fun and they grab really well, but unsure what 7k lbs would do to them.
not that size matters but they are 235/50/20

So what'd you get?
I might try a different one next time but I've been really happy with these. Had Hankook, which came with a higher recommendation, before these. Kept them for a week and swapped them out. Wouldn't balance (road force), were loud, rode like crap, and weren't very sticky.
Between that and the crappy Hankook truck tires we've ran I'll never buy one again. They are absolute garbage. No more Korean tires ever so that also rules out khumo. I've been very happy with American and Japanese tires. Hell the Chinese truck tires fare better than the hankooks.
The Koreans make great phones and TVs though!

I would have to agree on the hankooks being junk. It was night and day difference between my Toyos and hankooks. The hankooks I had to run like 50psi and they still rode way rougher than my Toyos with 70psi. The Toyos are also a lot sticker. I'm comparing ats though.
