Status: offline The asx and extreme would be the best options at the price range you are looking at. The continental would perform better in the snow but I think the kumho will be quieter.

We don't have discounts setup through forums but purchases made through the forum will help support it.

Status: offline I just put a set of this exact size on my Colorado Sport. I got Republic HPR Radial GT's. They are made by goodyear from what I was told, are M&S rated, and have a pretty aggressive tread design. I got them at the Gemini Goodyear for $88 a piece. Great tires, very grippy compared to the Conti's that I took off of it..
