So does Bridgestone. Too damn much money for me. My Nitto's were only $118 per tire installed, while the lowest price on the same size Revo was $165 plus installation. The $200+ I saved will help buy my new exhaust.

Yeah, I recently switched to BFG AT's because I could get them for the same price as Bridgestones. While the REVO is probably a little better tire, the BFG's get props for the "kewl" effect.

Around these parts, the BFG AT KO's were almost $20 per tire less before installation. Sam's Club had 265/75/16's for $156 per tire installed. If you buy as I did tires from Discount Tire Direct you can take them to Sam's Club and have them installed for a paltry $3.89 per tire.

Just put on Toyo Open Country A/T LT265-70/17 10 ply. $167 each. Every other decent 17 inch tire for my 98 EB was $180-200. And that was for P-rated, not the LT's. It may ride a little rougher, but it handles like a sports car.

I put a set of Revos on my 02 SCrew. It was without question the worst tire I have ever bought. They were worse than the factory General Grabbers. The heft of the SCrew just overwhelmed the tires. It didn't take much to lose control. I sold the truck because of them. Should have just bought a decent set of tires. Best of luck to those that have them.

I have had the REVO's on my Expy for about 25,000 miles now and STILL think they are the best all around tire I have ever had had on a truck!!! I got mine at a local tire shop for $125 each installed.

Flash, yours is the first negative experience I've read about with regard to the REVOs. Is the SuperCrew that much different in characteristics than the Expy (weight, height, etc) to make it as bad as you describe?

It is surprising. I know of many F350 CC DRW trucks with these tires and they think they are great. Of course they spend more time on dirt roads and in pastures than most of you spend on the paved roads.

I have Revos, $125 installed at the Firestone dealer. I think they are great. On and off road, snow and rain. Makes the truck a lot more stable.

I've had Firestone Wilderness, Michelin LTX M/S, Michelin Cross-Terrains and now Revos on my 1999. The Revo has been the best all-around tire for me, much better wearing than the Cross-Terrains with the best snow traction.

Revos Rule

I've had mine on my '04 Expy since new (12,000 miles) and have loved them from day one!

I installed Revo's because all the positive reviews here and I "love" them! ($125 @ Firestone Dealer). Next, planning on replacing shocks, any suggestions? I belive the most thumbs up are for the Rancho's.

I got the Bilsteins and love them. They are a little firmer than stock, but any good shock will be. No more body roll on curves.

I'm w/ BigMan, again. I've had my Bilsteins for about a year on my '00 EB and it makes for a nice ride... stiffer than the OEM, but now it rides like a truck (should).
