But then again, I have only had them on the car for 2 weeks. Havent hit anything significant yet. I have see a CFS on 24's and a Phantom on 26's. Makes my 22's seem cushiony.

Roads are **** for the most part. Undriveable in the winter time if you have a low profile tire like this.

For winter and snow you MUST use tires on 19" or maximum on 20" although Bentley recomends 19".

So you need another set of tires in the winter...

stevenrmusic has a reputation beyond repute

100% agree and that is what i did. Got Bentley ONE PEICE 19" rims and had Blazzak's mounted on 'em. Go ONE piece as between the snow/salt/sand the multi-piece may have problems with rust/etc. Once snow falls will take and post pics on my winter setup. Frankly, i think the CGT with Blazzaks will do better than the '08 Ford F250 Superduty with all-season tires.
