The new tires are awesome and a huge improvement in every department over the Dunlops.

Nice truck and I have the Nittos too and so far I really like them.

Very nice! I remember how surprised I was when I first had the Revos installed on my truck. It really makes you realize how bad the Dunlops were. How is tire noise with the Nittos?

Also, now I know who is in your avatar!! Very cool looking dog!

The noise isn't that noticeable on the Nittos til you turn down the radio and at 70mph+ there is a hum but nothing that's bothersome. and the ride is pretty smooth for D load range tires and their grip is much better than BFG ATs on dry pavement.
Now I'm waiting to get some real snow and see how these babies do.

looks great!

Thanks everyone!

If there is anymore road noise, I can't notice it. The tires inspire much more confidence, especially in the rain. I can't wait to see how they perform in the snow.

Looks good Toybox! Definately keep us posted on how the Nitto's work out. I'm still leaning towards those over the Revos. My buddies boss had the Nittos on his Titan and said they were a good tire but he's not buying them again because he only got 40k out of them. For the price of them though, that's good enough for me.

Yeah, for a full-size pickup I don't think 40k is that bad. I'll report back on the performance after it snows a couple of times.

Just got back from work and instead of taking the crowded highway I went a back way through the state park and driving in just a few inches of packed snow the Nittos have really good turn in grip on slick surfaces and when they do lose their grip they seem to give ample warning unless you are being stupid.

Compared to my Yok Geolandars they grip much better in the snow but the Yoks did have better dry grip hence their 360 treadwear rating vs the Nitto's 500.

Something about those grey cladding I love.

BTW, nice pics.
