kinda depends on your needs as well. i've got firestone destination a/t that have been great for me. but i don't think they're the best for snow or ice. the bridgestones dueler revos are very popular on this site.

He gave us only two choices! (I would go for the ones I have now since they are a Bridgestone design and build, but that wasn't the question.)

I just changed out michelin LTX's for michelon cross country. I had 85,000 on the LTX's and could have run them for another 20k easily. I went with the cross country because they have better traction in the snow. That came in handy on I-40 in NM last Thursday night.

My 97 Expy XLT 4x4 5.4L with 193,000 miles just got it's 3rd set of LTX MS tires last week. Some say they cost to much, but with them you really do get what you pay for.

Rember like there ad says " So Much Riding On Your Tires"

I'm on my 2nd set of Michelin LTXs. I had 90K miles on my first set, and the tread depth is still above the wear bars. The Michelins have extremely long tread wear, and very smooth, quiet ride.

I also had the LTX's on my '98 with at least 80k on them. They started to split on the sidewalls, thats when I got the new pair. But they had an offer I couldn't refuse, I put on Toyo open country h/t's. They aren't Michelins, but they are pretty good and for what I got for them, they are well worth it.

If you live in snow country the Revo's win hands down.
