I've got 28,000 on my '01 and my tires just did pass inspection for tread depth. That's many more miles than I ever expected to get.

I have searched online and am unable to find tires to fit this truck. I have also searched the forums as well but everything seems to be outdated.

Where can I get a good deal (value and quality) on some tires to replace the ones I have? All help is appreciated.

 

am I missing something? you were unable to find tires to fit this truck?

how about using another set of Goodyear F1's available most anywhere?

also Nitto and BFGoodrich and others make same size replacment tires.

good luck.

later,

P.S. did you try tire rack or discount tire direct? how about your local ford dealership or other goodyear dealer?

 

Go here: http://www.treadepot.com/td.c/orders/index.html and click on 'Brands', TOYO, light truck, Proxes S/T--295x45x18.

I just had four put on my 01 after 42,700 miles on the F1s....

DAYUM ... How do you DO that? Mine were gone in 12 K ... LOL

 

Try something different
TOYO PROXIES
With a 420 UTOG rating they will certainly last longer than the F1s and surly they would have to be at least as good as the f1s are in the rain.

TOYO PROXIES S/T high performance Sport Truck tire.

I abandoned the 25K F-1s after the first set wore out on my 99. Nothing was available then so I went to 16" wheels and Perelli Scorpion Zeros which I love, go 50K and are really great in the rain. I'm having my original wheels chromed and I an looking at other tires and I have had good reports on the above. No way Goodyear will ever get another dime of my money.

The Toyos are speed rated V (130) which should be more than enough for any short term high speed dash.

Sure... I can find some F1s locally but they have to be ordered and I'd have to pay $1200+ minimum for them. I'm not gonna go that route.


I'll check out some other brands. Any more online suggestions would be welcome.....

 

i work for goodyear and let me be the first to tell you that you arent going to find any deals on F1's anytime soon!!!

 

25,000 miles for tires that sticks as good as the F1's on a 5,000 lb truck is pretty damn good in my book.

Color me an F1 fan. I think GY got the grip/wear tradeoff just right with these tires.

 

discounttire.com had some F1s for 902 for the set (plus mounting & balancing)

Does that seem like a good deal?

 

imo the f1 is an excellent tire. just the right amount of performance, stick, and wear rating.

i think i'll either be sticking with the f1s or possibly nittos come next tire change. however i'm scrapping the drag radial idea and will just have to pick up a set of 16s and ET Streets...
