245/45/17 Falken Azenis RT-615

Ended up being a decent price.. From what I've read on calculators it'll extend my gears ever so slightly, which is good on my IX's short gears . Almost hitting rev-limiter through the 1/4 traps

The noise you heard, the camber bolt didn't come out and bounce around in your wheel? Did you check those two bolts that hold the strut to the knuckle?

I heard the noise for quite a while. I pulled over and checked...couldnt find anything. Later down the road I heard it fall off. I was on my way home from NYC so I really didnt have a choice...had to drive.

Thinking it was pieces of my ADVANS stipping off.

Had that same noise.. first my front passenger side did it, I heard it for like 5 seconds then it stopped.. thought it might have been the semi beside me making the noise so I thought nothing of it.

It happened again a week later this time it didn't stop.. drove 1 mile with it doing it to get to my destination and saw a nice piece of my tire hanging off and thats what was slapping the inside of the fenders...

.

I plan on getting this mug aligned properly once the new tires are installed.

Me too! Car seems to be hooking to the left now.

Just ordered some TOYO Proxes 4 for the winter.
