2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Tire question

[mavrick1]

Hey All,

From my signature you can see what my truck is. I've had the OEM Michelin LTX M/S tires on it for 73,000 miles and have had no problems at all. I have done some off roading and flown down a couple of gravel roads faster than I should have, and have never had a single flat or other problem. I have also liked the way they handled in snow and rain. I am going to replace them at 75,000 and am going to go with either the same Michelins or the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo. I'm just wondering if any of you have run this particular Bridgestone on a 3500 4x4 and what you think of them. I've done a lot of research and have narrowed my choices down to these two tires. Just wondering what your opinions are.

Thanks,

Lance

I dont have a 3500 but I just put my second set of revos on my 4x4 2500. The first set got right at 60k out of them. The only place they didnt seem to do well was in deeper gooey mud. Other than that no problems or issues. The dry and wet traction of those tires is great. They do real well in snow as well. Didnt seem any louder than the stock michelins either. The best price I found on them was at costco 175. 00 (265/75/16's) each included mounting, balancing, new valve stems and road hazard and rotations. They did have to order them but it only took a few days. Tire rack had them for 150ish but 85 for shipping and then I still had to get them mounted and balanced.

Was at Sears yesterday and they had the Revo's, 265 75R 16" for $136. 95 ea.



I am replacing the original Michelins with Cooper ATR @ $111. 00 ea, (never liked Michelins) have always had good luck with Coopers, then again I have 2 wheel drive.

That is one awesome price from sears. I looked high and low and the cheapest I found was tire rack for just the tire (156)and then costco beat everybody with their all inclusive price even beating out others sale prices. Guess I should have gone to Sears.

When I hot-shotted I ran the Michelin XPS. Consistantly got over 80k with them and they were great in bad weather and off road. One really tough tire, only one flat in three sets.
