Several years ago I posted my satisfaction with the Bridgestone DUeler A/T REVO P275/70R16 i got. I am just updating. Now the tires have over 80,000 miles and I think I can still get another 10-20K out of them before they are down to the wear bands. i am throughly impressed with how these tires perform, and how long they have lasted. I do a 5 tire rotation and rotate every 7,500 miles. I run 32 PSI in front and 30 in rear. The tires ride great, perform great, and treadwear is excellent. in the past I've run BFG Long Trails and they wore out fairly quickly, Michelins Cross terrain were nice but not as agressive as I'd like. Goodyear RT/S....again not my type of tire. EVen though these tires are worn, they still get me to where i need to be..no matetr what the weather, snow, rain, ice. They obviously don't dig thru the snow as easy as when they were new, but no tire will when it has this many miles. If anyone is looking for tires check these out! :thumbsup:

good to hear, i just got a set (255/70/16). i've only driven them a couple hundred miles so far, but i love them already
 












If I run mine at 36 or 38 the center of the tires wear like mad. SInce these are so wide, I have to run them softer to get optimal treadwear. I still get 15-16 MPG city and 17-18 highway.
 






i run my tires at like 30-32 also, cept for the one with a rim leak lol he chills at the mid 20s when i 4get to fill him up weekly
 






These will deffinitely be my next set of tires. I was going to go with BFG A/T's but after hearing everyone's reviews here and elsewhere online about the Revo's, I will be going with the Revo's. :thumbsup:
 






curious how much do a set of these cost, stock size or maybe a little bigger?
 






damn dude how have you put that many miles on your car already!? i really like the look of these tires too. theyre kinda expensive but if youre getting 2x the mileage outta those that i expect to get out of mine might be worth it for my next set...
 






i got mine on tirerack.com for about $118 each, where the BFG AT KOs were closer to $150. i also think the revos look more aggressive than the KOs
 






I got my set installed at firestone for $50 less then tire rack would have been. I called around and this particular firestone place asked me what prices i had been quoted..I said I was still calling around and they said Well, call back with your best price and we'll see what we can do. So I told them tire rack's price and they beat it by $50. I was impressed.
 






I read this thread then went through my records and checked. I've got over 20k on mine and I'll be darned if they don't still look brand new! These things wear like iron! :thumbsup:
 






I just bought the Revo's after reading 01EB5.0 and the reviews on Tirerack, what a difference, the ride is so quiet and smooth now! I have a 1998 EB with 52,000 miles and it had the original General Grabber AT tires (JUNK)! I paid $580.00 total.
 






I ordered a set of Dueler Revos from Costco and they'll be throwing them on tomorrow morning. I can't wait to get rid of my nearly bald Michellin Cross Terrains. They only lasted a year and a half and didn't perform as well as I'd expected. Didn't help that all 4 of my shocks were blown and caused the front tires to be cupped and feathered, but I put new shocks (Rancho RSXs) on today to make sure the new tires don't get torn up so quickly. Some of the wear was due to my driving habits though. Hopefully the Revos can handle a little abuse.
 






Glad to hear that since I just got mine. :thumbsup:
I lease a new vehicle every three years so I guess I'm set. The Ranger I had before I went through two sets and put on a third in three years. And I'm **** about air pressure, rotation, and it had a limited-slip. Stock RT/S's, bald in 19k. Wild Country XTX (generic REVO), too worn for winter after 20k, then I bought slightly used RT/S's off my cousin when he pulled them off his new Ranger...to put on REVO's.
 






88K on the Revo's now :-)
 






WOW!

Thats alot of miles on a tire, you must drive like grandma :) hahaha totally kidding.

I picked up a 96 Spolder from my brother earlier this month, 83K miles on the sucker and guess what its got Firestones on the rear, the recalled ones. 83 Miles and they are like 3/4 worn, could these be the original tires???
 






I took this pic last spring after I removed rust on my bumper but you can see my Dueler A/T 255/70/15 after about 25k miles. I really like the styling of the tread and sidewall and they wear great.
