Tires - Which are Best?

Bridgestone, Michelin, and B.F. Goodrich are all good quality tires. But if you want to save some money and have just as good quality, try to find a Kumho dealer nearby. I know-it is a funny name. According to my tire guy, they are made in Korea but they decided to go after Michelin-BIGTIME, and from the service I got from the set I bought, I have to agree-they really did their homework. I went to him specifically buy Michelins, and he started telling me about these. I wasn't interested at first but then he guarunteed me I'd like them. If not, he'd put me on a set of Mich's at his cost w/free mounting and free lifetime balancing(this is a one-man shop and he can ill-afford such freebies). IMO it was the best money I've ever spent on tires and they were 55% of the cost of a set of Michs. I was more than pleased with them and sold the truck with 28,000 miles on them-and never had a problem. Rated as all-terrain they were great in the rain. The truck came new w/Uniroyals(3 of which were OOR) and I had two sets of Goodyears put on afterwards. None were near the tire these Kumhos were. When the Bridgestones I have on my '04 Z-71 now wear out, I will buy another set of Kumho's.. Be sure and check out The TireRack's customer satisfaction ratings too. Snuffy
