Just got the Revos!!!

fishinfrenzi15 · 02-26-2008, 12:07 PM

finally got my bridgestone dueler revos installed today. ordered them last week.

gotta say, ive only driven home on them, but i can already tell a huge difference between them and the stock goodyears. its been rainin a lot here in north florida, so tomorrow im gonna go find me some mud out in the woods and see how they do.
thanks guys for recommending these tires...im sure i wont be disappointed!

Ha! I've spent the last 2 days agonizing over which tires to get. The Revos are in the running on my list. Let us know how they do in the mud.

I had them on my 2004. I really miss them since I bought my 2008 LE. I would purchase them again in a heartbeat, but they don't make them for the stock 20" rims on the 08.

cant really comment on their towing ability. only had em for 3 days, and the most i ever pull is a 19' carolina skiff.

Looking good!!

BTW, I always see the Revos with the white lettering facing out, is the other side blackwall, or are they both raised white letters?

The other side is blackwall. BTW, the Revos are probably the best tire I have ever driven in the rain. The amount of traction is unbelievable. As far a driving through the mud...well, it's an A/T tire so it's only going to get you so far. I wouldn't plan on entering any mud bog competitions with them.

My word of advice to you is: Make sure you rotate the tires often. They tend to round the edges off pretty quickly.

i wouldn't recommend Revos for the shear fact they wear much faster than expected. traction is superb but after 30k tires hardly had tread left and i had regularly rotated them. i was hoping they were better than the goodyears i had but they had BARELY better longevity.

fishinfrenzi15 · 02-29-2008, 10:38 AM

well the place i got them from is the shop my grandpa used to be the head mechanic at for many years. so i can go in there and get em rotated whenever i need to. and they do have the 50,000 mile manufacturer tread warranty, so if they dont last that long, hopefully i'll be able to get some credit for them.

Wakulla?! I'm here in Ocala and love my Revos. I have a 2007 2WD and just leveled the front with the PRG 2" leveling kit (not jacked up; leveled only). I'm more than happy with the Revo with the rain we've had this week.

I agree slightly with this statement. Overall they are wearing ok but make sure your alignment is spot on, i have bad alignment (didn't have funds to do it and was hoping to wait to get it done after getting a leveling kit installed to not pay twice for an alignment) and the inner and outside tread blocks are smooth. Yes, i know its my fault but i was surprised at how they wore down so quickly (i could see the wear week to week). I was also surprised at how much my tires cracked also (weather cracking they told me, but even my stock tires didn't crack so bad) I would still recommend this tire as an upgrade for the stockers though. Mine came with a 75k tread ware warranty.
