Any recomandations ?:party-smiley-004:

I had Khumo but they suckkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.:mad:

Mostly street no offroad !:eek:

Help please.

I've been very happy with the P235/70R17 Michelin LTX M&S I put on my 2006 quad cab Dodge dually. Light years ahead of the POS Generals it came with. They ride and handle great and no road noise whatsoever. As for offroad I couldn't tell you how they handle, never had it in the mud...

I went with BF Goodrich AT but I went with a lot bigger than stock tire looks good and has a good ride 315-75-R16

The Michelins are a great tire, as are the Bridgestones.

MICHELIN IT IS !!!!!!!!!!:evilb::ernaehrung004::evilb:

Dually question for all of you: Do you rotate dually tires? If so can you just move the rims around or do you have to dismount/remount the tires in order to move them (are the rims interchangable?).

You can always rotate all 6 without dismounting, it just depends on how good you want them to look.

Steel wheels with simulators will be the same no matter where you put them, since the simulator covers the wheel. Aluminum wheels depend on whether or not the wheel is polished on both sides. Some of the cheaper ones are only polished on one side, so people typically just rotate them side to side. Steers are always steers, inners are always inners and outers always outers. They just get moved L to R.

If they're polished on both sides and you keep up on your polishing, you can rotate all 6.

Brirgestones...here A/T Revo's best tire I have ever had!!!!!!

O.E. Fords (aluminum) have to be dismounted to rotate due to the backsides of the rims not being finished.

As far as tires, I suggest either Michelin(although they are pricing themselves out of the market) or Bridgestones.

Costs me $40 at Discount Tire because they dismount. Otherwise it would be free. I don't mind because I've used this store for over ten years. They've always done an excellent job on my vehicles.

H.K.

if you can get them to dismount/rotate and balance your tires on a dually for forty bucks your getting one hell of a deal.

Well I thought it was too but I held back from dancing around the desk. :evilb: :D

Your avatar is way cute! He's the same color as Miss Missy, my little brown rednose pit bull. :)

because of sponsership we went with Toyo, and it turns out they are a great tire. we have over 100K on our f-350.
i also have a set on my Excursion and they have been great on and off road.

Thats my Sammy, and that's pretty much his way of life.

I pull so much weight around with my F350 on a regualr basis I dont even bother rotating them. I treat the fronts as steer tires and the rears as drive tires. I put on cooper SRMII on the fronts and have goodyears on the back. With that stoopid coss I bean front suspension I burn off 2 sets of fronts to one set of rears.

Not wanting to hijack the thread but moving wheels left to right would change the direction of the tire. Over the years I have always been told that tires bed in a certain direction and you shouldn't change rotation direction through their life.

Not sure if this an old wives tale or there is some truth to it. Maybe new technology tires can take it both ways.

I just replaced the front tires on my dually, and saved them for eventual swap-out to the rear. The ones off the front had plenty of center tread left, and work great as inner rear tires.

That is correct for radials. They should never be moved from one side to the other.
