Re: best all around tire

BFG AT last fairly long on the pavement, and are still pretty good off road tires.
That's coming from someone that doesn't really like them as well

I agree they last fairly long but once they do go they are for crap. What I mean is that they just start to slide all around when the wear gets down just ever so slightly. My wife had them on her Durango and in the snow in IL they were ASS! But New they were great.

Re: best all around tire

Mine basicly need replacing as soon as I'm dione my next road trip, and I haven't had any problems like that.
Although I did notice that they lock up easily on wet roads.

It might be the way that I drive, or the fact that I have limited power with the 2.8L

Re: best all around tire

Yes thats what they would do on the Durango is lock up eaiser than normal. Now dont get me wrong they are a good tire I just didnt feel all that safe when it was bad conditions out. BUT then again now that I think about it.... We were in a Durango so I probably shouldnt have felt safe anyway.. lol

Re: best all around tire

I just had my mom purchase the Dunlop Radial Rover A/T and they are quiet and have plenty of traction in the rain. I owned a set of Kumho Road Venture 825 A/T's and they were awesome except for wear. I would say the best tires I have heard reviews on and seen is the Bridgestone Dueller A/T Revo's. I would check out www.tirerack.com or www.1010tires.com. Good luck!!!

Re: best all around tire

BlazerBoy, I had to make sure that you weren't Canadian after putting a Canadian Tire Store's link.
1010 tires is located in my province, and I'll be driving past it in a week or 2

Re: best all around tire

Had Michelin LTX ATs and they got over 50k and were great both on and off road but C rated so stiffer ride. Had Cross Terains also but less off road and more highway but longer lasting and smoother. Both expensive so now back to the Uniroyal Laredos and they are much cheaper and last almost as long and seen to flex well so fairly smooth.

Re: best all around tire

I hate the Uniroyal tires. My mothers blazer had them and they dry rotted after 3 years and were very dangerous.

Re: best all around tire

I believe that Uniroyals are made by the same company as BFG are now. They used to be really good but don't apear to make a truck tire any more

Re: best all around tire

I have the BFG All Terrain T/A's and I have just about 30K on them and there is almost no sign of wear. They are C rated and I keep them at like 45psi

Re: best all around tire

bridgestone duller at's are good tires but are a tad pricey (i was quoted $600 for a set)
