I have 55,000 on a set of 265 rugged trails. Can't go wrong with B.f.'s. Next set of tires will be B.F. 315 A/T's.

I have been trying to figure out how to list a classified here for a new set of chrome rims and BFG Rugged Trails that have less than 300 miles on them. I ended up with 3 sets of rims, which include my original set of alloys/BFGs, and another set of alloys/Perallis, thus I need to sell some. Not trying to get rich on them, but be aware...the shipping charge is painful. (I am in Colorado). PM me if anyone is interested or cares to educate me on doing classifieds.
Mike

I'm hearing and reading a lot of good things about the Bridgestone AT Revos since they came out in the LT265 70/17E size. My bud just put them on before a vacation to Steamboat and is raving about them. He put them on because he got stuck in his drive with the BFG Rugged Trails in 3-4 inches of snow.

The 265x17 rugged trails came on my truck. They're wearing very good

NOTHING will beat Michelin on the highway in ANY class of vehicle. Had a '94
Intrepid. When I traded it in had a set of michelin xh's on it with 80,000 on them & they could have gone at least 20,000 more. Had 1/4" to go to the warning bar. Regular rotation is a MUST for this kind of tire life.

Yes on Discount Tire Co. None cheaper w/free rotations & free flats fixed.
Probably $750-$800 for 4 mounted 265x17's.

I had the bridgestone dueler A/T revos installed about 3 weeks ago on my truck.They are like night and day in the snow verses the stock michilens.The michelins wore like iron but were terriable in the mud and snow.I sold mine with 32,000 miles on them and they still had alot of tread.coobie
