Question Rickson 19.5's

Anyone got these on their beast? I'm getting close to needing a new set of shoes and want to try something different than Mich or Goodyear. I'm getting around 45K on a set of shoes. My big concern about going the Rickson route is the tire diameter. I hear the the installation of these basically equates to a 10% overdrive. What kind of performance loss are you getting towing? How about unloaded?

I would hate to invest over $2k in new rubber only to be disappointed by poor performance!

Any comments appreciated!
