I plastidipped them and the wheels didn't hold it well on the inside of the spokes. next year I'll probably look for a cleaner set of these wheels and have them powdercoated black.

Are these Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric All-Season tires?

We only get about 6.5" of snow a year in Knoxville, so I'm more concerned about cold temp and wet weather traction. I'll drive the 4Runner if bad weather is expected.

I contacted Tire Rack and they recommended the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric All-Season tires.

Anyone had any experience with these tires?

don't mind the white socks, I've had them for a couple years (never wear white socks) and figured if I was going to ruin some when painting, I'd rather it be the white ones haha

these are goodyear triple treads. I love them (have had them on multiple cars). They handle well in all road conditions. The only complaint I have is that they are noisy, but it doesn't really bother me

The reason I went with the 205/60 R16 instead of the 205/55 R16 was I wanted a taller profile tire for better ride comfort, I don't have to worry about pot holes destroying the rims/tires, and it was cheaper then the 55s by $30 a tire. The tires I'm running are Bridgestone Blizzaks WS-70.

Hi, I'm gearing up for winter and would like to know if you had any rubbing/clearance issues with the 205/60r16?

I am looking to get the same size tire because I like the thought of higher clearance in the snow. Do you think they will be okay on a lowered 1" setup?

I had no issue with rubbing at all. With a 1" drop, I doubt you'll have any rubbing issues as well.
