got my tires

http://www.yokohamatire.com/TireIntro.asp?TireID=10

I decided on this tire make and model. I already have the frt 24540r17. The Rear ones 27540r17 are back ordered but I should have them in a couple weeks.

Some progress made.

I already have the rims.

Interesting tread pattern, should have some good traction. Not a fan of the big 17" wheels though, my preferance would have been 15", but I'm old school anyway. Hope they fit with no problems for you.
