So as noted earlier, I've run Revos about the whole time with this 4Runner, which has been about 150k miles worth (3 sets of them). I thought they were the best in numerous situations I found myself in (snow, backroads, Colorado mountain roads at 12,000 feet, etc.), plus they were an awesome daily driver (especially when it rained on occasion in the desert). The tire was actually somewhat legendary on this forum, and my deputy sheriff rescue squad neighbor extolled their virtues on all their offroad rescue SUVs. The thing that caused me - and a legion of others - to go away from them was the poor mileage on the Revo 2 version.

So far, tire rack is listing the Revo 3 as excellent in many categories, but the mileage rating is just "good." That concerns me . . . definitely not enough data yet to see if Bridgestone has corrected the issue.

Interesting. It seems counter-intuitive that they would have reduced mileage given their relatively light weight for an AT and their more street-oriented tread vs KO2, AT3, etc.

By "mileage" I mean durability - miles driven. (not MPG) Revo 2s didn't last as long as well as Revo 1s.

I’m still very pleased with them. Have 9700 miles on my set and they still look like new. Ride smooth and very good traction in the rain and last nights slick roads. In my opinion, definitely the best Revo Bridgestone has put out so far. To TeryT’s point, we don’t know yet on how long they will last, but my wear has been minimal. Based on what I’m seeing so far, there is no question I would buy them again.

I am glad to hear that you really like them and think they are the best so far. If they wear well, I would certainly consider going back to the Revo.

The Geolandar GO15s I just put on are a fine tire, and are snow rated (for some reason the new Revo didn't get the "snowflake" symbol . . .), but they are a little more towards pavement driving. The old Revos never failed in fairly aggressive offroad, and were actually awesome in the snow (again - why no official snow rating!?)!

I had Revos on my Ram. I hit numerous curbs in drive throughs and not a mark on any sidewall. Hit a curb on my SRA crap tires and you could see belt.

I am surprised how large they look on the t4r. I remember they looked larger on the Ram than the stock Wranglers.

Nice to hear they are smooth. Is the ride similar to stock tires?

Yes, I would say they are similar to the Bridgestone’s that came on T4R ORP once I found the right PSI for them. Might be a touch bit louder as you would expect with the more aggressive tread pattern. Agree, not sure why they don’t have the snowflake on them. They are better in the snow that the BFG’s I had in the past. That said, I still go with a dedicated snow tire up here in the winter. Will probably go with Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 SUV’s.

What PSI did you end up running with these? I just put a set on my SR5 - replacing the stock tires.

I'm still breaking them in, but I found that these rode VERY rough on the highway at 34 psi, which is what the tech recommended...

other than that, I love the look of them...They give my truck a much more aggressive look.

Did you get the E rated? Mine are the E’s and were set a 36psi from the shop. I thought they felt a little soft. After messing around with them, I settled at 42 psi. That seemed to be the best ride for me.

I’ve had Revo 3s for about 7k miles. Have driven around Uwharrie and dirt trails around the Smokies, through some good rain storms and a few snow storms. I’m really happy with them. There are certainly more aggressive ATs but for what I put them through they do the job well and without much noise.

Did you get the p rated ones. I need to replace my Toyo at2s. These,the cooper at3 and the general atx are in my short list. Do you have any pictures of them. The ones that MSU_spartan posted are the only ones I’ve seen on a 4runner

Yes, p rated OEM size.

Perfect. Thank you. Your truck looks very similar to mine. I’m trying to fight my old habits of putting MTs on every truck wether I need them or not. These look good.

Are there any more updates on the revo 3? There are only 12 reviews of them on tire rack. I am ready to buy tires to mount on 17s and I’m down to these and the continental terraincontacts, which have a lot of good reviews. I had the original revos and the revo 2 on my first 4R with basically the same results as most...longevity decreased with the revo 2 but still a very good tire. I’ve never had great results with any conti tire and this is their first attempt, so no real long term reviews, which makes me hesitant.

Still lovin’ mine... I’d buy them again tomorrow.
