Need Some Help Replacing my Stock Tires

[Ron]

Been away for some time, now back on the site needing some help purchasing tires for my 2003 300b SB.
I have a couple gift cards for Amazon. My MM has 19K+ miles & of course the Rears are toast, no tread left in the centers.
My searching has left me liking the Nitto NT 421Q, rears of course 255/55R18.
My question is the fronts, Nitto NT 421Q, would have to be 235/55R18. Can the front handle that size? Nice price on Amazon w/ free shipping. Yes, I want an all Season Tire. Your comments please, thanx.

I don't know a lot about the NT 421Qs, but I could tell you that the Nitto Motivos are by far the best tire I've used on any of the marauders I've owned. The come in a 235/50-18 for the front and either a 245/55 or 255/55 for the rear. I've tried the stock BFGs, Falken Ziex 912s, General grabber UHPs, and Nitto 420S.

I would suggest the Nitto Motivo as well, The 421 is a SUV tire. The Motivo is a sports minded all season tire. And keep your rear psi up a couple pounds, like 36. It was changed at the factory for 2004. 32psi was not enough after numerous complaints of tire wear

I have Cooper RS3-A's in stock staggered sizes and am extremely happy with them. I've got 50K on them and I'll be replacing them with another set soon..they're not to the wear bars yet, but close enough for me. I do run winter wheels and tires so I can't tell you how they are in snow, but in the dry and wet they're fantastic.

PLUS THREE!!!!!

And I like the 255 in rear. Fills and matches the size of the fender well, and looks a little tougher all around.

Running some Yokohama 580's on mine and I like them.

I have Firestones and I am pretty happy with them.

Nitto Motivo in OEM size on stock rims is my vote! Perfect match in every possible way.

Have Firehawks. No complaints as of yet.

Excellent choice sir

My marauder has 255s too, they do look nice on a stock rim

Show us pics once you get it back with new tires on it.

I just bought Nitto NT555 235/50f 265/50r. Paid a little over $700 shipped to my house.

Much more grip on dry surfaces. Haven't had a chance to drive it much in the wet weather yet, but the sizes don't look much different from 235/55 and 255/55 that a lot of guys run.

I have Coopers, since last fall. The full set fit our weird tire sizes, and they ride much easier than the BFGs.
