Getting some Bridgestone Deuler A/T 695s in tomorrow

Ordered some Deuler A/T 695s before the $70 coupon expired at Costco last week.
They ended up being a few bucks cheaper installed, than Tire Rack's regular price for the tires alone ($147.99 each + tax installed) That includes, of course, lifetime balance, rotation, and road hazard coverage. But you know all that.

I was wondering that since this was sort of a last minute decision on my part, what opinions do any of you have of these particular tires?
I originally wanted the REVO2s but they would have been an extra $100 almost. Didn't seem to be worth it in my opinion for my intended use which is:
90% street use, but need the snow traction for the occasional trips to the mountains and the rare beach blasts. I also have a week of sand dune exploration planned this summer. Nothing wild, just the wildlife preserve on Nantucket Island.
Can't seem to find much info on this site regarding these tires.
Any input?

I had these on my previous vehicle. A dodge ram 1500. They are great road tires, I never took them off road since I was 2wd but great handling dry and wet and had good tread life. We use them on our command vehicles at my fire department too so they stand up to a beating.
 
that's a good price and thanks for sharing the info.-I am shopping a bit myself for new rubber.

There are so many varieties of Dueler's I have trouble keeping them all straight. I'm sure they are fine for your intended usage. Were those the P series 265/70/16s or an LT 265/75/16 or which?

I'll try to come back for the answer-but am not getting any email notifications regarding subscribed threads.

I bought the P-rated 265/70s since they will be used almost exclusively on the street. They will be replacing my Michelin Cross Terrain SUVs.
I would have gone 265/75 if my truck was a little higher in the wheel well. Contrary to what I've read, my truck only sits 34" to the wheel wells. I fear that they will rub, and I don't have the desire to lift it. I also have a pretty firm grip on the wallet these days, so I don't need to lose any more gas mileage for the sake of having larger tires for looks.
