Tire advice..

[cjshloman]

OK I have to get ne tires for my expedition, mine are toast....1 has wires coming out the side. Ive been looking around, and have decided to spend a little more and get good tires that will last a while and be good for everything, not just the "pep boys" special, I guess you could say. I have narrowed down to a BFG or a Dunlop. The bfg at is like $180, the long trail can be had for like $120ish, and the Dunlop rover rvxt I think it is is like $118. This dunlop is suppose to be great in the snow and for off road and towing and highway. Im leaning towards this one by reviews and I can get it cheap at Sams club. Anyone heard of the dunlop? Any comments or suggestions? The size is 265/70/17. Also what is the next size up from that? Anyone know? Thanks, Bull.

I have typically stayed away from most bfg products, but have found the Firestone Destination series of tires to be a good choice.
Prices seem to be comparable, if not lower, and their uni-t technology provides a very accurately built tire that needs minimal to no balancing.
Worth looking into. :wink:

The Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo is supposed to be an excellent all-around tire - http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...tnum=105SR5ATREVOWL&fromCompare1=yes&place=15

It looks like the Dunlop got decent reviews - http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...rtnum=105R5ROVXTOWL&fromCompare1=yes&place=17

The BFG A/T's also got decent reviews, roughly the same as the Dunlops - http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...false&partnum=105QR5ATAKORWL&fromCompare1=yes

I went with the BFG's just recently for my Durango because I already had dedicated snow tires, and I got them on sale at BJ's for a good price. If I didn't have the snow tires, I would have gone with the Bridgestones. Anyway, I'm totally happy with the BFG A/T's.

I ran the Bridgestone AT's and Revos, and My bro inlaw runs the Revo's on his Expedition. Nothing but good things to say about them

ive only heard good things about the destination except for the road noise level
