01 4Runner tires

bobs01sr5 · 11-27-2007, 10:30 AM

I am sure this has been pounded before but I need to know what tires people are running on their 4Runners I currently have Michelin Cross Terrain tires on mine and they are BALD so I need new shoes I am thinking Bridgestone Dueler A/T revos I wasn't very impressed with the Michelin and they are a little pricey as well

Any and all suggestions appreciated.

Thanks!!

yokohama Geolander II's Good tire- quiet and a good ride

I've got some Nitto Terra Grapplers on my 01. Great in the rain, OK in snow, not that we get much here anyway. Not too noisy on the highway. Great deal for the money.

Yokohama geolander AT/S 265/70/17

I second that..

I've had my TG's about a year now and have been very happy with them.

How about we know what you pplan on doing with your 4Runner first since advising off road tires to somebody that will see very little is kinda dumb.

If your truck is a daily driver and you will actually see a real trail a few times a year it's hard to beat the price and the performance of the TGs.

I have the Bridgestone Deuler APT III's and they have been awsome in wet, ice and snow! I love these tires.

bobs01sr5 · 11-29-2007, 09:02 AM

Well the truck is a daily driver I live in New Hampshire with alot of dirt roads and they turn into mud bowls in the spring so I need a tire for paved and dirt/mud roads

As a fellow New Hampshire person (From Lancaster) I am well versed in mud season. As I am now in Wyoming and I drive everywhere here and colorado, I would definatly keep the tires in mind for a solid AT tire for a DD. (Mine is a DD too) I think these tires would be awsome for your conditions and requirements.

Just my 2 cents.

bobs01sr5 · 11-29-2007, 11:48 AM

Ah Lancaster so you can understand the "mud season" is there enough mud in Wyoming if not I can send you some ;-)
I am going to try the Revo's and if I don't like them I will try something else hell it's only money !

TJ_Shunk · 11-29-2007, 12:00 PM

Actually, we don't get enough wet snow here for any real mud. I know you guys have no need for anymore. The frost here doesn't get as bad as back home either. You will be happy with the Revo's. There aren't any frost heaves to launch your vehicle off of here. :-) I know the Wyoming people would love to take some of the NH mud though.

bobs01sr5 · 11-29-2007, 12:08 PM

Well I can package some up right now ;-)
We are getting rain now...well no the sun is out now, but no snow really yet because I haven't bought my tires but it's coming
