So you've had the 295/70/17s for a month or so now... what are your thoughts are them? How are they with factory gearing? How's the power loss? Seriously considering this size when it comes time.

I fucking love them! I would totally recommend them. I have 4400 them right now. Just rotated the other day. They seem to wear well. I really dig the slight hum. They do not wander like some of the reviews I've read. I have been running them at 30 psi. Might go down a tad. I was thinking there would be a noticeable power loss. Not enough to be bothered with. Highly recommend them. I feel they are an under rated tire. Great for my type of driving and roads I explore on. Perfect tire size for someone wanting to stay a tad under 35. Very aggressive AND less expensive than most!

These were the fronts...now rears.

Nice! They look good with factory fenders as well. Seems like a nice alternative to 35s.

Cool! I assume you meant under rated?
