Default Re: Dunlop Rover AT tires on Highlander?

Thank you all for your replies. I figure I will be happier with the Michelins in the long run.

The $900 local quote for Michelin LTX included road hazard (in-house) and wheel alignment in addition to mounting and balancing, but still was hard to swallow. This afternoon I ordered the Michelins from Sam's Club, which is about 55 miles from where I live. Much better price and includes road hazard, lifetime rotation and balancing. I do shop there a few times a year, so it shouldn't be too inconvenient to go when it's time to rotate. My Toyo spare has never been used and I guess I could drive that distance if I have a serious need to use the road hazard. I will plan to have the wheel alignment done locally as soon afterward as possible.

I spoke to someone in the tire department at Sam's and he assured me that I could check the date code on the tires before they install them.
