I had some Revos on my 1999F150 4X4 and I absolutely loved them! Great traction in all weather as well nice wear with rotations. In the rough, I could ALWAYS count on them to get me where I wanted. I only had them bogged once in the mud and that's when the TN clay was packed so deeply under the truck that it lifted them all off of the ground! The self cleaning pattern worked so well that the tires were clean while I was towing it out. :) In the snow and ice storms that we had in January, no problems at all. I also had to pull a few people out while stationary on ice and no probs.

Bottom line is that they are NOT cheap, but they are exactly what you pay for and expect. I'm looking into getting them for my 98 Eddie Bauer Ex.

how are they on the highway? i';m getting new tires before winter and i travel on the interstate to school everyday and i need a good tire that is good on the highway and in the snow. my pirelli's are great on the highway, but i wasn't impressed with their snow effort last winter.

quiet, smooth, long wearing plenty of siping and biting edges for snow

and the tread design cleans snow pretty good too

this weekend tropical storm ivan gave my area a rediculous amount of rain and the revo's were awesome. i couldn't break traction if i tried to. the ride is somewhat better that my old generals but i'm not concerned about ride quality as much as i am traction. there doesn't seem to be that much of a difference in road noise. so far, i am very happy with them. i can't wait till winter.
