Question - will they work on the Cat? I know the speed/load limitations are important, but what about the 'ride' for most of them? Are the sidewalls too stiff for a comfortable ride?

Do the tread designs match, that is usually the big problem?

I was looking at all of the brands and don't remember TOYO being matching tires.

I've just about decided that I'll pick one of the 20" tread designs that I really like, and find a close front tread. I just don't like the asymmetric tread designs at all.

I bought the Falken tires and the tread design could be better but it isn't that noticeable. JMP

No, Goodyear run flats were. The biggest concern is finding front and rear tires that match with the same tread design. There aren't many out there to begin with and Goodyear no longer makes the original tire or even a substitute in matching tread designs so your choices are limited unless you change the size of the rim with aftermarket rims or put a non stock tire size on the 20 inch rim which is usually bigger in diameter and can rub the frame and throw your speedometer off.

Look at the 2 comparisons of STOCK tire size, and a possible replacement of different size.

QUESTION - Does anyone see a problem with the difference in sizes - rubbing, etc. - in front and/or back tires?

There is a difference between the front and rear treads:

Hey, we got to get creative, cause evidently BF Goodrich is not going to make them for us anytime soon.

Bought them online at TiresDirect.Net - total cost delivered $676.83 with Road Hazard Protection. Tires will be here Monday. Going to cost me about $150 to have Discount Tire mount them.

Thanks for all the PM responses. It really helped me make a decision. Onward...

This from Auto.com:

"Not a problem if the front and rear tires have different tread designs. This only becomes an issue when the two tires on the same axle have different tread designs."
