Tire Recommendations

Looking for a good, standard performance 225/70/16 tire that will give decent tread life and won't break the bank.

Thoughts?

seriously, go 'used' - find a used dealer, I recently found a set of pirelli tires 280$ - about 28-32% gone, but the disco. makes it worth it. Go w/ good brands and shop until you find a set at a used reseller. It's the only way to go. Additionally I'd recommend the pirelli for your basic needs. Quiet pimp ride. BTW, be sure you go 'Uniform' - obviously - w/ regards to matching - All four the same. I think you know that part, though

Good luck!

I had never thought of buying used tires. Seems almost like buying used underwear.

- that's awesome, and I certainly can understand that, but seriously, these lil' huts carry great tires, w/ tons of life. They discount the daylights out of them. They balance them too. You'll pay double - or you could cut-cost and only get somewhere around eighty percent 'wear life' -- If you go new - I'd really think Coopers would wear best/slowest and is a relatively inexpensive, yet quiet ride.

I don't think i'll ever buy new tires again, Atlanta is littered w/ tire resellers, and they guarantee their product. These guys get good quality tires, at least down here at the one I go to, does.

We have a place called U-Pull-It. In Omaha. Im sure you have something similar where you live.
You can find nice tires for work vehicles ect. For $25.00 a tire with rim. I will never buy new tires again for either of my work vehicles.

Nah man. In bigger areas it happens a lot. People buy new rims, the used, perfectly good tires won't fit.

It is, especially with modern tires. With the older tires, tread wear was a good indicator whether the tire was any good or not.

Now, the carcass wears out prior to the tread. Mounting, balancing and getting rid of your old rubber is a big part of the pricing, no way would I consider a used set of tires.

Go to tirerack.com and plug your information in. They will give you all the best options with tire ratings. My tire dealer matches their pricing now.

My Grandfather was a tire salesman for 40 years, and swears by used tires. They're the only things we put on our cars.

You should also check put www.tirerack.com for good new prices though.

Why do you say that?? I love my BFGoodrich tires and wouldn't put anything else on my truck.

Cars we stick with Michelin. And I can't say I'd ever buy used tires....just doesn't seem right.

Had a set of very expensive ones with only 15k miles on them start falling apart in the middle of BFE Wyoming when we were on vacation.

Your probably right and under the right conditions it would be hard to argue with buying used.

Sorry to hear that. I just replaced the original BFGoodrich Rugged trails on my 02 Tacoma with some All Terrains. I liked the rugged trails and they lasted 8 years and about 47k miles. I went a little more aggressive with the all terrains...I've had buddies swear by these for years and i love them so far.
