Just wondering but has anyone replaced their tires with Goodyear fortera's? i was looking through tirerack and saw that it rated #1 in the survey results with the yoko geolander at #6 and the mich xterrains were at #11. if you have the fortera's, are they better than the xterrains or the geolanders?

here's the survey results

Take those survey ratings with a grain of salt since those are alot of people justifying their purchase vs actual knowledge of comparing tires.
 
I don't claim to be any type of tire expert, but yes I have them on my truck. They've been through some very heavy rainstorms and one ski trip to Vermont in about a foot of snow. I'd like to test them more extensively in the snow, but living in Southern Maryland, especially this year, has made that difficult. So far, I've been very, very happy with their performance (although I can only base this against the stock Dunlops). They've been on my truck about 7-8 months now...

THE BEST OVERALL RATED TIRE IN THE 265/65/17 (ON ROAD/OFF ROAD) SIZE IS THE PIRELLI SCORPION ATR(ON ROAD/OFF ROAD).IT HAS AN AVERAGE CUSTOMER SURVEY SCORE OF 9.025,THE FORTERA(ALL SEASON/HIGHWAY) SCORES 8.75.I WOULD GO WITH THE ATR,IT IS THE SUPERIOR TIRE IF YOUR NOT A SERIOUS OFF ROADER.I TAKE IT YOU ARE NOT DOING SERIOUS OFFROADING BECAUSE THE FORTERA IS THE SAME TYPE OF TIRE AS THE PIRELLI,ALTHOUGH THE ATR IS A BETTER OFF ROADER.YOU MIGHT ALSO CHECK OUT THE FIRESTONE DESTINATIONAT,AND THE DESTINATION LE.THAY ARE VERY GOOD,QUIET TIRES WHICH LAST 60,000 MILES.I'VE OWNED THE LE ON A 1995 BLAZER,THEY WERE A DREAM ON THAT PIECE OF CRAP,THEY VERY SMOOTH. READ THE REVIEWS,THE TIRE TEST AND THE SURVEY RESULTS THEN MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION .HAPPY TIRE HUNTING.

I had Goodyear Fortera's on my Tahoe and I did not like them. They rode fine but they wore out in less than 20,000 miles. I would not buy them again.
