Funny that one of the reasons Ford decided to buy my truck back was because I was going to sue them for breach of contract due to the fact that they wouldn't stand by their own warranty and fix my truck, because they couldn't. I don't need to read anything about warranty law, that's what the lawyer is for. I did, however, read my owners manual which was revised in January of 04 to exclude any vibration problems. Interesting, hmmmm.
Sorry, but you are wrong. Kingfish is right on this one. Say you change your tires but then you have a problem with your engine. Are you saying that they will not fix it because you voided your warranty by going with nicer looking bigger tires? I dont think so. For example, there is a member on here named BlackBeauty I think. His truck is jacked up with a lift and has bigger tires. Says that he has been to the dealership numerous times and heard nothing about a voided warranty. The point is the only way it will be voided is if you mod your truck and that mod cause something to break. Then Ford doesnt have to fix it.

I don't know how much better bfg at's are than the stock tires. If you are in mud on a regular basis try something more aggresive than an AT.




These are goodyear mtr 305.70/17 with a 2.5" level kit. They also make the tire in a 285/70/17.
