I can't seem to be able to confirm the actual width of the wheel, so if the wheel is only 8" wide will that create any problems going with the 305? As far as tread I guess i'm looking for a sport/performance type tire that performs good wet and dry because we have a pretty good mix of both down here on the Gulf Coast, oh I have a 2WD so I guess that narrows it down a little further. A friend suggested the Yokohama Prada Spec X, any opinion on those or suggestions on others to take a look at?
