I wore the fronts out because of my cornering habits. ![]()

I had Revo's on my 97 for 50k rotating them every 6k, they were toast when I replaced them. I found the rears wore quicker than the fronts - single axle. They were a little squirmy towing at first, I kept them pumped up logged cold and hot pressures until I felt they were the best. They'll get harder as they wear down and loose some traction around 30-35k. I'd buy them again.

How much pressure do you guys run in your fronts? 60some lbs. sounds like an awful lot to me. I always ran 45psi front and rear with my powerstroke, rotated about every 10,000 mi and always seemed to have even wear, and a decent ride. Well anyway that's where the wife seemed to be the most contented. I've always had BFG A/T's and got 40,000 plus as I recall.

The sticker on my driver side door says 65 PSI front 40 pSI rear unloaded and 65 PSI front and rear loaded.

70 all of the way around loaded or unloaded for me. Haven't had an issue with the Bridgestones on either truck.

I have BFGoodrich Rugged Trail T/A 's on mine from the factory(optional on/off road tire w/raised white letters) 265/70/17 service discription 121/118 load range E, and they take almost every driving situation well, they are good in the snow and rain , don't make a lot of noise on the road,and does good in most off road conditions .. the rear is wearing more than the front ,but thats more me than the truck/tires...I have the tpms as well and the light load setting , but at first running at factory tire pressures in the front and rear, the light would come on it seemed like once a week and the tire pressures would be off a little but not bad so I went to 70psi. all around and it seems to like it because no more lights, good tire wear and great maners in all conditions even towing. the only thing I did was turn the white letters "in" because I thought the truck looked better that way, I rotate @ 10,000 miles and have 23,000 on them, have had to replace one ($165.00ea.)as I ran over a big spike in the road with the left front tire towing the maverick on the car hauler durring vacation in july, (even durring a tire going down with a 1/2 in hole in the center of the tire, on the front, towing a trailer @ 70mph, the tires did handle well,very good control, no violant shake or pull ) I thought when they finnaly wear out I would go to a more off road tire and a bigger size as these look tiny in the wheel wells, I mean even the 1/2 ton rams have 20's and up, and I know that they make tires/rims that would fit and fill the wheel wells better ,just don't know about the costs of getting a rim and tire that will handle our load range etc. I may stay with what I have:17"polished power wagon forged alum.rim and the BFGoodrich rugged trail T/A's , as they have been a great set up for all I have thrown at them even off road, they would be hard to beat, I just wish they filled up the wheel well more and when I get the leveling kit on, I'm sure I will decide then weather I can live with the "look" or not....

General Tire (OEM) were scary in the rain after 50,000 miles. Went to Michelin LTX II M&S (Mfr tread wear guarantee for 75,000 miles if you rotate every 7,500! Unheard of on an E rated truck tire) and I love 'em. Nice quiet ride, great traction in the rain and snow and ice...never even bought chains last winter.

I have the 2500 QuadCab 4x4, LB. It came with BF Goodrich 245/70R17 M&S tires. They have worked pretty good, even in the snow. I have 42200 on them and they will need to be replaced sometime soon. The most worn part: the sidewalls. I drove on some very rocky roads where the rock was sharp as glass. It cut the sidewalls something fierce. I have used Michelin tires before and had good luck.
