That's what the word "Canadian" means! ;)
Ya, being a car driver for years....I didn't realize tires could get so
expensive. But those are only 31's.
I don't plan on any lifts for a few years (wait til after warrantee is
done).
So my stock tires have little tread wear (only just hit 30000km). But I
think I might invest early for a Christmas present for myself!

Yep, that was Canadian funds. The 33's and 35's were the same price $205
($153 US). I was tempted at the 33's for that price but I would have needed
new rims, more lift and fender trimming.
The 31's will do for now.

Hi Brian,
You forgot to position your camera so as to hide both jacks. ;-)
It's looking way better now than:

The Goodyears are loud, right? Like you can't hear the stereo at
sixty miles an hour. With BF Goodrich AT all I hear is wind noise.
