Tire recommendation

What is the best tire for the use of my Ranger? I used it mostly on the freeway and around town, and drive alot in heavy rain.

GET A GOOD QUALITY all season tire. If you go to the goodyear, BFG and Bridgestone websites, you can look at their different tires and they will give you a rating for handling, noise, wet traction tread wear etc. There are far to many brands and modlels for someone here to tell you what's "best". You will have to do some research and decide what you like. Personally, I like the look and the durability of BFG All Terain's.

TireRack.com has a great website that demonstrates the performance of tires that they sell. I have had great luck with TireRack over the years.

Why? the first post is on 10-06-2005??
But for this topic, TireRack.com is a great website for tires. I found a coupon (save $50 for tirerack).
That may save you some money.
