goodyear wrangler rt/s

tacomaman06 · 03-18-2009, 01:49 PM

anyone with any experience with these tires? i recently got a set of gtradial adventuro a/t tires.........not again tho. im swapping these for the rt/s tires........mostly because i drive on the interstate alot. the adventuro's are heavy as hell and they dont balance worth a crap....even with roadforce balancing......................they still shook the truck like hell at 65mph and above.

negatives/positives about this tire??

I had those as stock tires on my 04 Ranger and they did ok for what I was doing but wet traction was poor and I had some hydro plane issues with them so be careful if there is alot of water on the road.

actually.....i had the revos on my other tacoma..........awesome tire, then i traded it. should have taken those tires off. i paid a little over $500 for the adventuros a couple of weeks ago................and im checking with the place i bought them from, gonna see what the price difference with the 265/75/16 revo's are. i'd much rather have the revos anyway.

David Tarantino · 03-18-2009, 04:18 PM

the revos are more money but i feel worth it in the long run

You should sell your steelies and tires and invest in a long lasting tire, so you will just have one set of rims and tire but you will have a good long lasting durable tire
