After a post from yesterday, Goodyear and the brands they make will never make another list of tire options for me: https://www.wibw.com/2020/08/18/good...iscriminatory/
Goodyear brands to avoid: Goodyear, Fulda, Dunlop, Sava, Kelly, Debica - https://corporate.goodyear.com/us/en...-products.html

Maybe for some, but Coke did the same thing, their stance meant something to me, haven’t bought a Coke product since. Not a drinker but the Bud Lite thing meant something to people. Target’s stance - I nor my family has been back to their store. My aim is to support companies that reflect the same values that I do. Does it make it harder to shop, yes. Am I more mindful, yes. Do I make an impact, nope. But I feel better about spending my hard earned dollar.
Just because a company stands up for one cause doesn't necessarily mean they are against the other. They're just looking out for their bottom line and trying not to alienate anyone, even though we know it does some.

Amazingly, I got 50K out of my stock GY's with Kevlar. I just replaced them with a set of Michelin Defenders because I wanted a highway tire. No off roading for this truck but tows a 9K travel trailer.

If you have the bandwidth this was a good review of tire explanation I thought. So many want to change tires because of traction or longevity wear. I think alot of guys just go for some aggressive looking tire because they look cool and aggressive tires do look cool but for the price of tires why not look at the tread pattern and make-up of the tire other than the "cool" aggressive look.
If money, performance and longevity isn't a worry than get the aggressive tire for the urban assault on the asphalt battle ground.
I still like my Goodyear Wrangler A/Ts for my highway off road adventures.
