True slick did not fit into my "criteria". The Tour is my second car, I don't like mixing wheels/sizes, and I like driving on at least 17" rubber at all times, so the 225/45/17's will go on my Superlegerra's to be driven on until they wear out. Then I'll have a better idea of what dr's do on my car....possible Falken Azenis sports next time???
The BF's are quite a bit softer than the Nitto's....I've seen/touched/experienced both tires...the BF hooks better.
50 more hp on 5psi, but also 60 ft. lbs. of wtq....plus I plan on running more than 5psi...now that I'll be able to put more to the ground.
Thanks for the assurance of axle strength. I knew you were among the only people to be using dr's, so I was waiting for you to chime in....thanks!
