thanks, so far these tires have done awsome on the road. i jave dome 90mph (max the 4cyl with 410's and 34's will do) and it rides smooth. the balincing was tough i never got them perfect cause we were about to close at work so i couldent spin the tires on the rims (our balancing machine tells you whear exactly to put the tire on the rim to get the best result) to get them perfect but i got them kind of close. ill fix them later.

with the soft core wheeling i have done sofar with these tires cause i dont have enough time during the week to go hit the real trails cause there 45 minutes away. they have doen awsome but i havent really had time to give them the real test yet. maby this weekend but i might be haveing a custom cat back made for her so who knows.

Back in the day I had wheels like that too. I ended up painting over the stripes because I couldn't get them off without taking the finish off the wheel. The link in my sig will show you how to properly paint alloy wheels if you are interested in exploring this option for these.
