) and they look very awesome. You can take corners pretty much as fast as you want to, and bearly slide. When testing them out, my friends will freak out thinking we will go in a ditch at the rate and direction I am traveling in, until I easily turn the wheel and recover.Great tires, and worth the money IMO. Talk to Todd @ Discount tire direct, he will hook you up with a great price!
GT2's suck terribly compared to the 404's. Worth the extra 20 bucks per tire!

Badyear GTII's come stock on the Harley trucks. Please don't torture yourself by purchasing a set of these tires!! They suck. As stated above, go with the Nitto 404 extremes, they are night and day to the GTII's and won't bust the wallet.

so something missing here, or IS there in my case.
but we will really put them to the test in a few months

Parish just go with 4-255/50-16 BFG Drag radials,they will help your gearing(26"diameter),they are fairly cheap and hook so hard they will pin you in the seat.The down side is that you don't even want to think about driving them in wet weather.I've got a extra set of factory alloy wheels for cheap if you decide to go with the BFGs.
