Got them from Discount Tire Direct. Free shipping, and a twenty five buck coupon. Saved 85 dollars over driving to their store, where I still would have had to order them anyway. I bought the 404 Extreme Force...275/60/18. These things are BIG, and at 36lbs. each, they aren't light. I'll hang them and do an alignment Monday. I'll put up pix

Ahhh, yes, those "new tire" days. Whenever I put new tires on any of my cars, the car seems to run better and faster...plus my teeth are whiter, I lose ten pounds, girls smile at me more and my IQ goes up 17 points. Also the days are both longer and sunnier! Congrats on the new tires. Your mileage will drop, but somehow it will be worth it. Post them pics right away!!!

This is the size tire that should have come on the VX! 275/60/18 The tires themselves are spectacular wet and dry, but I wouldn't go near snow or much dirt. I'll get a set of Terras for that. Here's the pix:
