Re: Tire advice for f-150
DO NOT, and I cannot emphasize enough, DO NOT go with Bridgestone Dueler HTs. I put them on my '98 F150 and I can tell you that BRAND NEW, they would slip in the ramp as bad as my worn out to "SLICK" Dunlops. If I had to put tires on an F150 the ONLY thing I would go with are the Dunlop ATs. I can swear by those tires and only through experience as I have no vested interest. Let me know if you have any questions... I have no experience with the other tires so I cannot comment on those. The Bridgestone though, STAY away from them. I still have the F150 with about 70 % tread. If you are in SO FLA, let me know and I will show you how bad they slip.

Stay away from the Dunlop's. I put them on a Grand Cherokee a few years ago and was the worst tire for ride. Just a heads up I called 3 places and they started out at $720 than discount qouted me $628 than went to payless and the qouted me $468. I than called discount back and they qouted the $498 and he stated that was cost and no profit. I took the truck to Payless and they tried the big switch. I walkout and went to Discount. Just check around and remember you get what you pay for.

Re: Tire advice for f-150
One last question,, Anyone know anything about the Bridgestone Duehler AT Revo's ??? Costco has a set that were ordered for someone and they never picked up for what seems like a great price installed. from the reviews for them on tirerack, they appear outstanding ???

Thanks for all the replies guys... Went with the Revo's,, very happy with them so far in the rain, snow should be excellent,, I think gas mileage is suffering a bit though.
