Tires NITTO or BRIDGESTONE
2019 F350. Just replaced these. Good tire, got about 55k out of them (35x12.5, r18). Ran them at 65 psi.
My 35” Nittos lasted 6 years, probably could’ve been a year or two longer if it’s wasn’t for a huge nail
I got a great deal on Bridgestone Weatherpeak at Costco. I felt very confident driving them in torrential rains last week.
Great tire but doesn't clear mud like a true mud terrain. So it depends on what you are getting into. I have used them in all conditions, and would avoid them only in very muddy conditions, esp clay-mud common in SE US
Bought these tires for my Mazda 3 after one of my OEM Bridgestone EL440’s got pregnant(sidewall bulge), and I plugged a puncture in the other one. Decided to just replace the tires completely.
So far I’m happy with them.
Pros:
- Severe snow rating so they are legally snow tires in my state(for mountain passes and stuff), and I’m guessing the snow traction is way better. They are still all season tires though.
- Seems to be a softer ride overall even on the stock 18” side.
- XL sidewall strength, vs the stock tires being standard. Should help with those sidewall issues.
- They seem fairly quiet as far as noise.
- $150 rebate in addition to being fairly cheap
Cons:
- These are definitely not for those people who want sporty handling, they don’t really feel like a sport tire, and are more of a touring road tire.
- I’ve heard the treadwear isn’t the best(makes sense with the snow rating)
I had the Bridgestone Revo 3 in my last truck and they did great. And they have a 60k mileage warranty. I got 70k out of them. Before my truck was totaled. Probably had another 15k on them.
My nitto terra grappler g2 are 55k in and look to have 5-10 more in em
I've had sidewall bubbles after pothole impacts on two previous low profile run flat Bridgestone tires which were on previous BMW's
My current Bridgestone Potenzas have plenty of tread left, but developed sidewall cracks and need to be replaced.
I know someone who had a blow out running his RE-71R's in the winter, apparently
