It would be cool, I think it will really depend on how sales are with there newer models and how well the mexico manufacturing plant does, as far as output and quality. if all that goes well and they start turning over a good profit it might happen

Likely have to roll with the 285's...the diameter is a bit larger than the 265/275's I run. Might be close though depending on the tires sidewall profile and your camber #'s

Mkt, you have to post some pics when you get them mounted. Those wheels look nice!

How much do they weigh?

IMO 265/35 would be better
