Default New Tires for the TRD and what a difference!!!

Well I got rid of the TRD BFG R/T TA's today and had some Bridgestone Dueller AT Revos (same size as OEM) put on and man what a difference. I was able to zip in my driveway in the snow without sliding one bit. I sold my tires to a local Army soldier who had bald tires on his 05 F-150. I originally advertised them for $400 for all 4 on Craigslist. He was willing to pay $400 for them. I felt too guilty putting him in these tires with Alaska winter conditions and how poor tey worked. So I struck him a deal, $250 and he agreed to sipe them for $60 so in actuality he payed $310 for them and thats with all 4 tires being siped. It would kill me to know he or his family were hurt because he didn't have the money to replace his tires with new ones,bought mine that suck on winter roads and ended up hurt or killed as a result. The guys at TDS (Tire Distribution Systems) assured me that with the Rugged Trails siped they would work well for him this winter. He was happy as a lark and I recouped a little cash towards my new tires. The Bridgestones already show to have 10 times better traction and am sure they'll work great as tehy always have. I am going moose hunting down south tomorrow so the Tundra will have to work a little tomorrow but with new shoes I am sure shes up to it! <grin>
