Yup.

Oh, and they'll cost more, and weigh more.

Apart from that, they really won't hurt anything; will give very good life. I'd run a set if I got 'em cheap; I just wouldn't pay a premium for 'em.

Kind of like using a Kenworth to pull a little 16' Bayliner boat on a light trailer. It'll work, but it's way overkill.

BTW, now I can see all the links in the sig lines! woo hoo!
