Perfect tires for 2004 V6 4Runner4x4?

4bummer,
You're our latest post-whore. Nothing better to do for the last 1/2 hour?
I think from this and all your recent spam posts we get the picture (literally.)
By the way, sorry you're a REVO fan (j/k). I'm not.

I can only compare the BFG AT KO ( had many sets of them ) and "P" rated Revos. (1 set )

The Revos are a great on road / wet road tire . In snow I find them simply ok , off road I dont think to much of them at all ( although I do have the "P" rated ones )

I only tried the Revo from what I've read here. Good tire but honestly was dissappointed overall. I do alot of road driving and they work great for that , but I also take my 4R just about everywhere , always finding someplace to drive off road , a field , farm roads , fire lanes , ect....I go everywhere I please with this thing and will go back to BFG AT KO.

Revo , better on road dry & wet manners and geared for onroad driving, all season weather,not all terrain imo.

BFG AT, better off road and acceptable on road tire for its toughness and strength. Way better off road and in heavy snow IMO.

I've always wheeled all my trucks and NEVER have had a flat with the BFG.

My recommendation would be BFG AT KO "C" rated tire. If mud is you biggest thing to tackle , look into Firestone mud tire , supposed to be real good road manners from what I've read.

Well, the REVOs are probably a tad bit less capable off-road than BFG AT KO as the BFG AT KO's are a tad bit less capable on-road than REVOs.

For off-roading, you need to have wide shoulder blocks and strong sidewall. This is where BFG AT KO stands above the other popular AT's out there. In addition, the BFG AT KO was designed to be aired down to low PSI and it conforms pretty well over rocks (again relating to strong sidewall and bead strength).

As stated above, if on-road performance is my main concern, then i would get Goodyear SilentArmor.

Alright guys...Your argument seems alot to me like the "perfect chick" battle. "Well, one is hotter in the face and the other has a hotter body..." You wouldn't ba able to f*ck either so buy a damn set of tires and go watch a porn like you should be doing instead of endlessly debating tires!

I'll have to agree with Falls on this. I wanted an A/T as a winter tire and went with BFG. Test drove a buddy's truck and the REVO was too loud for me as an A/S road tire. Since I'm getting it only for on-road, then there are quieter and better (Mich CT or Pilot for me.) The only thing REVO has going for it is a modern tread pattern.

tomhaney1,
Why settle for one or the other? Get both, a face and a body. They don't have to be on the same body! This way I get the best of both worlds.
p.s. I'd rather talk tires. That's why we're on T4R.org instead of watching porn.

LOL.....:D
 
Bottom line , therre is no perfect tire , it really depends on your need !!

Revo "P" and "E" , BFG AT , Nitto are all great tires.

I'll have to hand with Koz on this one....especially If I'm leaving town the next day:D
 
Hi, just to chime in. I live in San Francisco and travel to Tahoe quite a bit. I have also driven to Sun Valley, ID a few times. I did some serious 4 wheeling in the NV desert with my AT's. Firstly, the sidewalls are passenger tire width which makes them very prone to puncture even when doing light 4 wheeling. I replaced them with REVOS which are much heavier duty, and are Light Truck LT tires. I have notice no difference in ride quality and I drive the freeway daily.

Good luck!

Do you have "P" rated or "LT" rated tires ?

Does anybody have Pirelli Scorpion ATR tires on their T4R? Are these good for maily highway driving?

I had a set of these on my '92 Bronco. They were great in the rain and light snow (3-4 inches or so) and made almost no noise on the highway. However, they flat spotted like crazy. In cold weather, even after just sitting over night, it felt like I was like driving around on square tires until they warmed up.

Overall, I liked the BFG AT's I had on the truck much better.

I just installed these on my T4R today. I'll let you guys know what I think of them after I drive on them for a while.

Not clear on your response. Did you install Pirelli or BFG?

Actually, I believe my Revos are P rated. Although I have to say, much beefier than the Dunlops...

It will say on the front of the tire size.
eg....

P265/70/17 or LT265/70/17

What size did you go with 65 series or 70 series (middle number)

I honestly hesitated to post this in fear of a major run by people to buy a set so they're unavailable if I decide to get some, but these look really nice. Available in 265/70R17.

Any bad experiences with the brand? Looks like they're only available in load range E, but I'm not concerned with having a stiff sidewall and I do pull a boat.
