Nothing wrong with that. Half the price of the Toyo's. If the Nitto's only last half as long, then you can get a new set half way through and have twice the number of new tires. That's double the fun! lol

Summet20, what size spacer did you end up using? I wanted to go with the same width tire, only problem is the dealer I prefer to do business with and trust the most won't touch adapters or spacers. Mainly I want a taller tire, but unless I go all the way to 19.5"s, taller is going to mean wider as well. (Looking at 285/75/R17 which is about 33.8X11.2)
