Good idea. I'm constantly stubbing my toe while it's sitting here in the garage.

If my schedule works out for Q, you're first on the weight list.

yes, doesn't make sense to buy one for a one time weigh. Consider quartzite in january, we'll slide the scale under your tires. John is getting me into training for that.

So, I got the tires one today! Woo-hoo!
Happy with the price and service. Ed Whiteheads Tire and Service. I now even have a $97 service credit with them for future work!
Somebody mentioned the smell of Toyos....uh...yeah. smells like cow poo...not real bad though.
They ride pretty much like the Michelin did. They do make a slight whirring sound going down the road, but not bad either.
Hmmm...can't add picture?
Anyway, I also got rid of the extension hoses on the rear snd installed a rigid extension and stabilizer block from shinyrv.com

is that a TPMS sensor in your picture? If so, be careful when taking them off. I accidentally unscrewed the connection on the inside dually. PITA to get it back connected.
