Hi Jim, what is the advantage of the larger tire? We also have the 295 GY tires on the front and they show edge wear, I stopped at GY while passing in OK City and had the front end inspected and we had to problems but I was told that the tires we bought 3 years ago with are more the 7 years old and the rubber is now bad(we have only 15,000 mile on these tires) I plan to visit our GY dealer on my return to Seattle to discuss the old tire problem. I like the Michellin tires we have on the back better then the GY but they also are the normal 295 size. I am not sure we would have the room for a larger size but if we had an advantage I also might change.
