I have a full size truck 4X4 that is mostly used as a get around vehicle. It is going to be used upstate ny which is rural and hilly. The last mile or two is a dirt road ( gravel) and on a real hill which a 2wd just cant cut it so i went to 4wd... Anyway with this kind of driving, what kind of tires ( Make and model) are you guys using and would it be good for my application.. also after the ford fiasco, does anyone still use firestone/bridgestone tires? and how are they?
Im still thinking about their history of blowing out.. for generations..
comments? Input?
