    Bridgestone is a scumbag outfit though. They've been caught numerous times over the last couple decades selling known defective tires. You're crazy for even considering switching from Toyo if you're getting what you claim from them. I just bought 8 Marathons for 466 OTD but now you have me serious considering Toyos!

    Tires look great. Bridgestone 713 I believe is the latest one.

    I could see the road better, insert evil laugh. :evil4:
    40-45 mph, til people went to acting stupid and spinning out and crashing in median in the ice tracks.
    I never spun a tire.

    The DL12 HANKOOK IS HEAVILY SIPED AND DOES EXCELLENT IN SNOW AND ICE. Kind of similar to Michelin x line series of drives

    TA/Petro and some small independent shops sell a tire called Ironman. I ran the I-208s for a year before I sold the truck. They had about 150,000 on them and they still were deep in tread. They are about $270 each. They're even smartway certified if that means anything. Might be worth checking into.
