Just got my Revos on!

Revos after 1 day: Because of all the highway (family travel) miles this truck will see I went with the stock size again which was 265/65/17 to squeeze out the best possible mpg. (I know 70s would have looked better.) The more agressive tread pattern really gives the truck a tougher look even in the stock size. Traction in the 3" to 4" of snow we have now is great, I am very happy with the way they grip, especially when making a left hand turn through a snow-covered intersection, no sliding at all. Road noise is suprisingly quiet. I do not notice any more noise on the highway than I had with the stockers. Possibly even less noise actually....after 50,000 miles I think the stocker were pretty hard though. I did a TON of research before selecting these, they got great reviews and have a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty. Price was right too. I'll have to get a pic up later with them on. :bigok:

Thanks for the pics! DO you get any rubbing from the 70's? Also how bad will it hurt my mpg's? I like the bigger look. Thanks

I got a fair amount of rubbing at the limits. With the BFG A/Ts, I felt most notably was how the drivability of the 4Runner was negatively affected. That was more of concern to me that the MPGs.
