Never been happier to get a nail in my tire

Picked up a nail in the sidewalk of one of my tires yesterday. Only 2500 miles on the tires. I decided to change all 4 since they didn't have the same tires in stock. Went with the same size (275/55/20) nitto crosstek 2 (comparable in price to the stock nexens) and what a difference. Rides so much better. The traction is way superior to the nexens also. So yeah, I'm actually happy I picked up a nail in my tire.....

I am glad you posted this. I will say I have learned so much from this site. I have a ‘19 Longhorn 1500 off road. The ride is nice but not as nice as the non off road. I have heard changing out the tires makes a difference. I also let some of the air out to 39 psi and this has helped. I do not need ALT tires as I do not go off road.
