I'm running 295/45-18 Hankooks on my MM and they are my 2nd pair.

I am and I keep the pressure at 40 lbs psi.

Wow. Then I should have no problem running a 275. Thanks, Curt

Hi Brian, would you have any pics of your tires/wheels? Anyone else running a 275/45 on the stock 8" wheel? If so, can you post or e-mail me some pics?

I do not have any of my MM, here is a thread with pics of DRs blue MM:

Those 295's on DR car look nice. Not baloon-ish like I thought they would. I'm thinking a 275/45 should be just fine.

Thanks again for the help, Curt
