    i read that the top 3 finishing trophy trucks in last weeks baja 1000 were all running bfg tires. The second place truck was running a brand new 42" TA...

    The number of flats those 3 teams had combined.....Zero.

    Speaks pretty well for BFG

    (I realize not really apples to apples, but ya gotta think some of that race tech makes it into consumer bfg tires)

    True, I should have noted that it was for other types of firestone tires however, it was more than one type of firestone.

    Wow that's scary. Guess I'll stick with BFGs then even though my Destination AT experience was good. I was pretty hard on them going hunting in rocks and did a whole lot of 75 mph runs from Texas to NC and back with zero issues for 40k miles. Maybe mine were made on Wednesday and all yours were Friday tires!? ;)

    Stop trolling. There's a billion sites with tire reviews and you are spamming the forum section.

    Do you have a tire recommendation? I am looking for help so I make the best choice possible and who better that ask than toyota owners.....

    If you have no tire recommendation don't comment and mind your own business....

    Lol I think 1 thread is too much because if you search "tire recommendation" you'll get a lot more answers than the replies you will get here, but you have made two threads, why?

    I made a mistake with my first thread. I tried the poll option but messed up and the poll didn't show up. I thought I deleted it but see it is there. I will delete it again..

    I have searched "tire recommendation" and have considered the responses. I tend to over analyse and wanted to be sure. As you can see from my poll, the responses I have read and tires I was considering haven't feared well in this thread.....lol

    I'll be done soon........ getting time to make a decision......
