    Had Renegade Radar A/T on at first and went with these because of price and reviews... good tire but in my opinion this particular truck needs more rubber on the road... they screech around the corners if you push them. Will do until I reach in my wallet and she'll out 800+ bucks for the A/T's again. But a good alternative for the money. Wet traction doesn't give much confidence either. Maybe because this is a 3 ton machine. Did the millage in about 2 months about 10,000.. yea 10 thousand.

    If this tire will be used as an around town, dry weather tire, then it is an affordable choice. However, this tire is hard to balance for comfortable, high speed driving. It also is the worst tire I have ever used in the snow. Even a dusting of snow makes travel dangerous and uncertain.

    This is the second time I have bought these tires for my 2004 Ford Expedition. The first set had 58,00 miles on them and were still usable, however I'm going across country this summer and wanted to have a new set. Because of the great experience I had with the first set, I bought them again. The first set wore very evenly and performed great. I had one flat and it was from a thin shard of metal that caused a very slow leak, and was hard to detect. I didn't rate them a five for winter driving as I never used them in the snow, only in heavy florida rain, which they handled easily.
