Yeah. I got them installed Wednesday. Looks a lot better. No more stretched tires here!

Was back at my local dealer today. The Duramax hasn't been starting, one day it starts fine, the next day nothing. I figured it was a relay or something. Turns out one of the batteries was shot. Two years old!

How do you like the Hankook Ventis? I found some Yokohama's for the rear called S-drives.
They grip well wet or dry. $150.00 a tire. 275/40/18's

The tires I have are the Hankook Ventus S1 Noble 2's. I went from 255/40R19 to 275/40R19 due to my 10" wide rims all around. I've only got about 200 miles on them so far but so far I like them a lot. They're quieter than my stock Pirelli P-Zeroes were and I no longer have to worry about driving on hockey pucks when temps fall below 40°. And not only do they handle poor weather better, but according to the surveys on TireRack.com, they're even better at dry handling than the Pirelli's too.

I love them, have the same ones as Tribefan. Had them on for a few thousand miles and they are awesome in both wet/dry weather.

Even if you kept the pirellis the bigger tire makes such a huge difference it's hard to compare. Why not 285s though?
