Nice shoes I would love to step up to 20's but there's so many pothole in Michigan and Ohio the low profiles wouldn't last a season. Had low profiles on a conv Saab. Within in a year and a half, I had to replace oem 3 rims and 4 tires. At least I didn't have to pay for the tires. I bought the road hazard insurance from Discount Tire and they replaced them. They didn't even prorate for wear.

my wife is from NY and they got crazy potholes too! low profile tires would be a pain.

i'll be in touch!
