Tire decision time
Posted: Mon Nov 18, 2013 9:07 am
Morning everyone!
I always like to have my tire issues resolved before first snow. That was not in the cards this year. So here we are.
I have decided not to go with the encumbent Bridgestone Dueler REV02s. They did OK, but the wear has been less than stellar. Admittedly, this could be due to my alignment issues too (see my other thread here: http://www.thenissanpath.com/viewtopic.php?t=9859). However, it looks like Bridgestone is discontinuing them, so maybe I'm not alone in my choice...
I am considering the following tires for my 05 Pathy SE 4wd:
Firestone Destination A/T (can get these for less than $600 installed)
Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor
General Grabber A/T2
Goodyear Assurance TripleTred
The last one is not an AT tire, but I have had really good experience on other vehicles (not an SUV). It really works well in rain, and on ice it has been excellent so far. Don't really do any off-roading, but am hesitant to go this way as we've never had anything but AT tires on this rig. It just wouldn't feel right I think... But I am willing to consider if someone has something good to say about 'em.
Anyone out there have anything against the above?
