Question Goodyear F1 ?

Went on Goodyear web site put in my Truck 2001 lightning and came up with Eagle F1 GS model # was P295/45R18 101W.Put in for the hell of it 2003 came up with same Tire # but what was differant was the last 3# 108W.Was that because of the Differant rims on the 2001/2003 years?or is the 108W better tire. thanks Jimmy

You think that's weird?
I been fretting over which tires to get for some time. Been debating about getting the Nitto 404 in a 285/50/18 which has a wear rate of 400

Well, from home it says $127 ea. I go surfing on my work PC and it comes up $141 for the exact same tire?

The F1 is $202 but with all the BS it is still over $900 and you still have to mount and balance...

Go Figure. It is an expensive to and if ya want to play ya gotta pay.

I would be curious to what you end up getting and for how much.

The 2003 increased the sidewall capacity, hence the 108.

Either one is just fine. I got my last set for 188 out the
door cause the Goodyear store matched the lowest price
I found on the net. (Tirerack!)
