No more soccer mom tires!

After having my ride for just over a year, I got my Revos on yesterday.

I have been telling all my co-workers, but no one gives a crap. I had to tell some one who cared

Compared to the Mich LTX the difference is night and day. That's all, just had to get that out. Ahhhhhhhhh. I feel like a man again.

Out of curiousity, what did you replace? The Michelin LTX's? I've had and loved both. Each has their pros and cons. However, REVO's do ROCK!

ouch... not a suckerpunch.... well, not inteneded to be one!

congrats on the revos. they're definitely a step up from the LTX's in "gripshun", but in reality, they're still pretty much a street tire - but they do good offroad - which the LTX's don't.

I forget exactly which LTX they are. But they were definitely crappy. I squealed around corners doing 3 mph, no traction on anything. Off-road? Hahahaha. TireRack would put them in to the Highway All-Season, not in off-road all terrain (where the Revos live). I was considering some off road max traction, but this is my DD. At least I am not iceskating on grass anymore.

I will get pics up this weekend. Ahhhhhight?
