Good morning Jason,

I tried to answer your private e:mail concerning tires last night but your
Yahoo address bounced. Must have a problem with Yahoo.
So I will include my original message in this post:

Jason,

Gee, I didn't know anybody ever looked at those pictures but me. They
were taken March 21st of this year in Shelby Township, Michigan. I froze
my butt taking them. Wind-chill was near 0 degrees.

Now, to answer your question. The tires are: Cooper Cobra GT's rated
at 130MPH. They do not list them on their Web site, but they are available.
The size is 255/70X15 and are on the factory Mag's which are 8" wide.
There are no clearance problems.

After much debate, I picked this tire and size because I wanted handling,
ground clearance, traction, good wear, looks and safety. I ordered the tires
before I took delivery of the Dakota. I sold the Goodyear's with 31 miles on
them and have been running the Coopers ever since. (53,500 miles, 2nd set)
These tires have given me everything I wanted. Coupled with TrailMaster N7
Invader Shocks with Poly E bushings, front and rear swaybars and a good
computer alignment, you would be surprised how well the truck handles.
I run 37PSI in the front and 31 or 32PSI in the rear.

Hope this answers your question. If you want more information, I would be
happy to comply.

Have a nice day....
