Help! I'm confused on which tires to buy for my 2000 Rodeo!
I have done a lot of research on the web to find the best set of tires for my 2000 Isuzu Rodeo. I have heard that Goodyear brands do not do well with Rodeos...is it true??? I have two separate brands of tires on my vehicle now and I can't stand them! Please help! Thanks...

Re: Help! I'm confused on which tires to buy for my 2000 Rodeo!
I had the same set of Goodyear tires on 2 different Rodeo's at the same time, one truck - the '91 Rodeo I had, ran great with them; the other Rodeo, my current '97 Rodeo ran HORRIBLE with them.
To give the tires fairness, for one, they no longer make that specific model of tire, for another, the '91 Rodeo ran 15" tires, the '97 Rodeo ran 16" tires - and it's possible the 16" tires that I got were defective, I don't know for sure. All I can say, is both trucks rode smooth for about 2yrs/15k, then the '97, even with plenty of tread left started vibrating like crazy constently, couldn't get them to stay balanced. I will NEVER put Goodyear tires back on the '97 Rodeo; however, I'm tempted to put a set of Goodyear silentarmor's on my dodge diesel this next spring. Personally, for a great a/t & highway tire combined, with EXCELLENT traction on all surfaces, the Bridgestone Revo's can't be beat! Ran a set of these on the '97 Rodeo until they wore out, I LOVED them - just couldn't afford the 2nd set at the time it needed em.

I've got a set of Nokian WR-SUV's on my Rodeo. They work well, especially in the snow and rain.

Re: Help! I'm confused on which tires to buy for my 2000 Rodeo!
Alot of ppl run BFG A/Ts on thiers. If price is an issue I've been happy with the Dayton Timberline A/Ts (made by Bridgestone/Firestone) on mine. About half the price of BFGs. I've had them on my '90 Mitsu p/u and now on the rodeo. I have one that bounces but its not the tires fault, my front bushings were bad and messed up the tire. I'm thinking of going with the Timberline M/Ts next time just cuz they look meaner.

I put a set of Fisk Sport King A/T's on mine. Way cheap. Plenty of meat and they are wearing really well. 28,000 miles and they still have more than half the tread. Great off road too! Check out this site http://www.epinions.com/auto-Tires-A...splay_~reviews
