Title: Costco tires?
Post by: PsoasHunter on October 28, 2022, 10:01:01 PM: I need new tires on my Tahoe before winter but I'm not planning on owning the vehicle more than a year or so, so I don't want to go all out. I'm wanting all terrain tires, and was thinking of going through Costco and getting out the door for under a $1000. I don't have any experience w/ any of these tires, thought I'd put it up here and get thoughts.

BFGoodrich - Trail-Terrain T/A
Bridgestone - DUELER A/T RH-S
Michelin - LTX A/T2

Other recommendations for under $1000?

Thanks!

Post by: dewandgin on October 29, 2022, 11:23:27 AM: Depends if you want LT tires or not If you are not keeping it for more than a year and just want a a good all season tire I could beat that price by quite a bit. On the BFG $930 out the door and on the Michelins it would a little more than 1K but if you just want a all season tire in that size It would be $757.57 for the Sailun Terramax AT 4S

Wildpeaks are awesome. I ran a set on my 2017 Silverado to 104K and didnt really need to replace them at 104K, had some life left. I replaced those with another set of Wildpeaks

Coming over Snoqualmie in downpours and those tires handle it like a champ. They are even better in the snow. We drive her rig over our f250 in the snow just because the tires handle so well. I will definitely be running them on other rigs. Tread life has been awesome as well.

Agreed.
LTX A/T2 are my favorite AT tire but the Wildpeaks I have now are looking pretty good for having 60k on them.

:yeah:

You might find a set of takeoffs for cheap as well. Discount will mount tires brought in for a reasonable cost, I don't think Costco will and Schwab, well, I wouldn't go there.

I never wanted the white letters showing so that never made any difference to me.
The MS/2 is a totally different tire and you're right, probably the best LT road tire you can get.
