I heard about this tire from friend, and he says that they are real good.

Any opinions and suggestions are appreciated

not really sure which tire you are looking at. My browser brings me to an error page:

Cannot find the specific product in the database.

Can you list the manufacturer and model of the tire?

Kelly Safari MSR

265/70r17

The ones in the pic obviously aren't the ones that i want. I obviuosly want the 265/70r/17

Kelly used to offer a 30 day test drive on their tires. You might check to see if they still do. Aside from a recall about 2-3 years back for belts seperating, I haven't heard anything bad about Kelly tires. They're just not as widely publisized as other manufacturers.

Yea i read that as well. And they still do have that on the website. But i think i have to still pay to have them put on them balanced as well. And i think that only works if i actually own them and want to switch to a diff. kelly brand

The Toyo Open Country 265/70-17 are $113/tire. I would trust toyo over kelly any day of the week.

You won't need the Open Country LTs which are $143/tire.

I just sent you an e-mail.

Why would you take a chance on a tire that your not sure of when you could get a set of Revos? Proven Great Tire!

That is why i put it out there to see the feed back from the "wise ones". My boy said he got them for a good price and was pretty satisfied with them. So, i thought i would put it out there and see what yall thought

4 real!! Got rid of the crappy Dunlop today and had the REVO 70/ install. It's like night and day with them! What a bad azzz tire! I love them!!

Kelly's are decent tire's. They are generally low cost high performace tires. They may not be as good as a toyo or other premium tire, but they are decent and will last for at least 25 - 30,000 miles I would say.

Drew, get the Revos. They are a great tire for the good and bad weather. In addition, so many people on the board have them and love them. You know we wouldn't lead you wrong!!

 

[chunderboy]

That is def. the feeling that i am getting from you guys. I was just thinkin' that i would put that tire out there and see what you guys think.

Thanks for all the help boys.
