Another damn Tire Thread

[Dennis]

I'm getting ready to replace my original Tires I've had on the H3 since New..Now at 68,000 miles..Fantastic!!!!:whaa:

The size is (LT285/75R16) Bridgestone Dueler A/T RH-S...They have discontinued making this model now
I don't like the price or the looks of the Bridgestone Revo and they won't last nearly as long I'm told.

I want a tire that will run nice for a decent price and still have an aggressive tread for M+S, but last a long time like these originals did..

I currently am considering; Hankook Dynapro ATM RF10 285/75R16, They are reasonable at around $182/tire plus$75.00 shipping and/or $701.00 at Pepboys (Buy 3 get one free) kind of deal...and have a tire UTQG rating of 560 A/B which means around 50,000 miles tread wear.

Any other recommendation on a long lasting similar type tire is appreciated..

TIA

That's a good looking tire. I got 4 of the last 15 of the Bridgestone Duelers a couple of months ago. I was planning on putting them on before winter but ran a bolt into my sidewall and decided to do it now. I ran into a guy at the Dealership with an 07 and he had 91K on his with about the same amount of wear that I had at 52K. He almost teared up when I told him they had discontinued that tire. I would have gotten about 60K out of mine. I think that is very good for that type tire and they are not a bad all around tire. My next set will likely be the Goodyear Duratracks. Folks are reporting pretty good wear out of those. Good Luck and let us know what you choose.

I love the bridgestone tires - the last like iron... but I needed MT as well, I run Toyo MTs but a bit wider 305/70 16. They last ~50k miles, that said, I wouldn't mud with them after about 40k miles because they get a bit thin.

BFG A/T's last about forever and do well off road too. Cooper ATP's or the AT3 should last well too.

Currently considered a new H3 alpha owner, but just put a set of Goodyear duratracs...305/70/16's on my rig. Combined with Bilstein 5100's the ride is incredible. Way quiet and handles well. I do live in Colorado and also looked for a great snow tire. Just my experience.....love them

I just swapped out my Duratracs at 53,000 miles, they might have gone longer if I hadnt been putting off upper A arm replacement which caused them to be all done together. I thought they did great in the snow and good enough in the mud.

I run the service department at a commercial tire company and Hankooks by far have passed up Goodyear tires. On an 18 wheeler we would usually get 150k-180k miles out of Goodyears but with Hankooks we've gotten 250k miles which is quite a difference. As far as car tires I'd imagine it would be the about the same, just in car tire miles probably if rotated and balanced properly easily 90-100k miles.
