finally got my new revos!

Well I finally got my new tires. I opted for the stock 245/75/16 size in the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo. I must say, these tires are so much better than the crappy Goodyear Wrangler RT/S tires. I had a thumping issue when driving down the road, and wouldn't you know it was the stupid Goodyears...no more thumping! It's been raining the last two days and these tires are way better in the rain. Just thought I would share and add a few pics.

Looks good, I will be getting those once I need new tires. As for the thumping, did you ever get your tires balanced?? If you didnt I am sure that is where the sound came from. You will eventually get that with every tire if you dont get them balanced.

thanks guys, I am pretty happy with these tires so far.

I never got them balanced since I purchased the truck in July. I've read so many posts on here that the Goodyears are so bad and can't hold a balance I didn't even want to waste the money to try.
