Anyone us Uniroyal Lerado AWT's.

Thinking about buying a set of lerado's for the truck 33x12.50's i mostly run the beach on the weekends. wondering if they will do desent and last a while. not to much on hear about these tires seems like everyone has used the liberators.

I ran those Lerado AWT's on my 1990 F250 for well over 10 years, been through a couple sets, still have 2 on the back, there good tires, they take forever to wear down, and they are decent in snow/mud. Mine were LT265/75R16.

at the tire shop i work at it seems like its hit or miss on those...some love em, and others are always back and back for vibration issues, and its not the balance. inconsistincies in the tires manufacturing i guess..outa round or something along those lines usually.

i found the awt 2's for a desent price online i figure ill give them a try at $108 a tire not to bad. i had bfg long trails on there before the 31's i got now they seemed to last a while but a little exspensive for my tast. i looked at the bfg a/t's but they seem to be on back order all the time. as well as most reviews say they arnt so great in wet weather after the first couple of 32nd's were off. and it rains atleast once a week it seems hear in eastern nc.

I had a set of 31x10.5 Laredos and while they did last long they became dangerous in the wet once down to about 1/2 tread.. no traction at all, so I got rid of them.

Here you go.

And yes like Conanski said, they do get pretty bad onces there over half worn down. Mine are at that stage right now, never notice a difference on wet roads, but they start sucking really bad in snow or mud.

Mine are 265/75R16




Heres some 235/85R16

I'm running my second set right now. Great tires and they last forever. And you can get a set for 600$ ( 31x10.50 that is)
