New tires, painted frame rails!

So, I bought a new set of Goodyear Assurance Tripletreads yesterday to replace my worn and rubbing BFG Long Trails.
I also painted my frame-rails today with grille paint.

You're crazy.. they aren't slicks!
j/k

Thanks Mike. The new tires are extremely grippy and its unbeleivable how much difference it makes on takeoff. It accelerates much faster with the 215/70s than with the 235/75s
