What? Are you serious? Good luck driving on horrific NYC roads with those tires, that's all I can say.

Acuracy · 03-01-2009, 04:24 PM

lol yea they are crazy josh. But you'll get used to it bro. Ive had it on my car for 2 years and never bent a rim even driving in the city, LIC and brooklyn.

25 series profile is damn small. You're gonna feel everything on the road

aut0sh0cker · 03-01-2009, 06:01 PM

might as well just cut out the middleman and forego the tire altogether. you know, really get that "connected with the road" feel!

choopy · 03-01-2009, 07:43 PM

i hope you have nice smooth roads out there, nothing will make your day worse than a cracked rim and shredded tire from nailing a pothole. GL

NinetyEight740 · 03-01-2009, 08:57 PM

ive got 235/35 and 275/30 and i am surprised how well they ride... Im sure a 30 and 25 setup would not be that much worse...

gtrokin330 · 03-02-2009, 12:24 PM

form over function

i had a 35/30 setup before on a slam...and it was SMOOTH as hell on nyc roads...so 30/25 is just fine

SoYank · 03-03-2009, 05:03 PM

Just for our edification could you please post a photograph of your tire? Maybe include something with a standard size, a dollar bill maybe, along side it for comparison.
