I got 245/325 so maybe the stock sizes are still coming in?

Please post a review on them!

I want to order a set too, but initial launch does not include my rear tire size of 325/25R20

New Tires finally mounted (sat at shop for a week). Lots of meat now. First impressions are top notch. Very quiet, smooth at 65mph (didn't push it), and good feel on ramps.

Had PSS installed previously so very similar feel. PS4s should improve performance on wet and longer thread life.

Mine went on today as well and so far feel great!
OP, did you get recommendation on inflation? My installer (who also did alignment check) recommended 36/40 psi when cold, which is a tad lower than the OEM (37/45).
