I can tell you that they will last at least a week.

Also, I got mine from onlinetires.com - 145/ea. (cheapest I could find by far)

I'm working fairly close to their warehouse and picked them up.

I've read that people get up to 40k+ with them when taken care of - rotated, aligned, etc...

I come from replacing falken azenis 615's every 7k on my old se-r so this is excellent!

Haven't gone off roading or even tried to flex much yet. Daily driving - the only rub I've found and I know that it will only be worse under compression and full turn off road is the front rubber mud flap connection to the wheel well. Not too worried about it though. I don't think the rear will have a problem.

I have 2" ome springs in the rear and 1.5" bj spacers up front.

4" bs - there's really no option with the cragars in the sizes I was looking at.

The weights are on the inside. You usually have to request them to be put on the inside - otherwise they don't care.
