Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo

I am having 4 new Dueler AT/Revo's with UNI-T AQii tires installed this Sunday. I was looking at the GoodYear Wranglers with SilentArmor but they were about $300 more than the Revo's.

Does anybody else have the Revo's and if so, what are the pros and cons of the Revos. Did I make a good choice?

Had them on my old truck and loved them, great ride quality and treadwear. Wet traction was excellent and they did ok in mud. I was very satisfied and would buy them again.

Have had Bridgestone Dueller Revos 265 70 R-17's for about two years now. These tires have been thru bad muddy 4 wheel drive hunting roads, travel on blacktop to places like Portland, OR, back to Littleton, CO, and all over the Denver Metro Area. They show no wear, will not slip or slide, and are the best tire ever. But at 85 mph, they are a bit noisey. Never drove 85 until the Portland trip, but now my opinion is based on fact.

I highly recommend them. Mine are P rated, no LT tire was available at the time of my purchase. If you buy them you will not be sorry. Hope this comment helps you out. Semper Fi! Mert Leeper

I had Revos on my previous F-150 and loved them as well. Tirerack's survey has many satisfied customers.

I put a set on my 1998 F-150 Lariat this past October. I am still very happy with the tires. Good with wet traction.

Tires

The Revos are very well rated, but I had a set of Forteras on my last truck (2003 screw FX4). They were by far the best tires I have ever had in my life. I am hoping they will come out with a good selection of 20" tires soon so I can use them on my 06'. I only have 3500 miles on the factory Pirellis, so far they seem to be a very good tire too.

I've got an '05 FX4 with the stock 18's and I'm gonna put a leveling kit on the front to fit 35's.

Does anybody know if they make the Revos in an 18" wheel in the 35" size?

I sure love the look of my stock 18's, but can't find a damn thing in a 35x12.50x18 without spending $300 per tire....RIDICULOUS!!!!...and 16's won't fit with those humungous brakes they've got on these trucks.

Any help is much appreciated cause this college boy's gotta eat!..._motes

They do not make a 18" tire in the Revo. I did hear they were coming out with it but not sure when. I had Revo's on my last Ford 1/2 ton and thought they were great. I am also putting a 2" front leveling kit in my truck and will be looking for better tires than those crappy factory ones.

Tirerack has Revos in stock for 2 sizes of 18" rims, but not 35" diameter. 32" and 33".

they are an excellent tire. did you get them from a bridgestone firestone retailer? if so make sure you get the newly reworked protection plan. definitely a plus when your buying tires that pricey. i have had revos on 2 of my old trucks and a set on my g/f's explorer. mt dad has a set on his dodge too. i pick up my "new to me" truck on wed & already have a set waiting for that one. but for me it helps being the service manager @ the store.

I've got the 265/75/16 Revo's on my truck, and they're amazing. I have never been at a loss for traction, that is until I put my foot into it. They ride like a dream, are quiet, and look good too. Well worth my $500.

Yes, I got them from a bridgestone firestone retailer. It included the lifetime new tire wheel balance-parts and labor, lifetime rubber valve and the protect tire repair & replacement plan.

that's cool. ppl always ask my why i get it since i work there. my response is that i may not be near my store if i have a problem. and if i do i get a new tire for free...that better than the employee discount. enjoy them.
