Im looking at tires for my 86 toyota pickup, and my two picks are kelly safari tsr or firestone destination at. The kellys so far i like the best but i dont know much about them and i do know that the firestone destinations are dam good tires. If anyone knows anything about kelly safari tsr or had them plz tell me how they have held up and ride.

ps this is my daily driver to so i want something that can last a good while

thanks

 

I second this. My local tire guy informed me that Kelly tires are manufactured by Goodyear, and after he told me this it dawned on me that the TSR pattern is pretty close to the duratrac, but the question still is how well do they hold up?

 

My top choice was the Kelly Safari TSRs when I went to buy tires, but they didn't have it in the 32x11.5 size. I am very surprised that a lot of people aren't running those on their vehicles because they seem to be a very solid tire. Thee Kelly tires are, in fact, made by Goodyear. What few reviews I have read stated that they're great. The only problem is that not many people use them, hence the few reviews.

 

I had a set of kelly at's of some sort. Don't remember what they were called but i called them garbage. Traction was marginal at best and they would go flat at the thought of something pointy. My dad had a set on his f350 and liked them until one delamed on him.
That being said, that was about 10 years ago and they were not the TSR's. The tread looks pretty good but I still don't trust the kelly name.

Good luck
