Tires and WheelsDiscussions and experienced advice about tires, wheels, traction control, proper balancing, improving tire life and more.
This is a discussion thread titled "Sorry...more tire questions (michelin)", within the Tires and Wheels forum, part of the Technical & Vehicle Assistance Forums category.
This post is in reference mainly to the michelin ltx a/t2. Anyone running them? Pics would be great. I am specifically looking at the 285/65/18. I plan on leveling the truck after the bfg's wear out, and want to compliment the leveling kit with a different set of rubber.
I want a tire with mild offroad capabilities but is still very forgiving on the street, and most of all will yield better mileage than the bfg's. I also want to step up just a hair in size, but dont think I want to go with 305's, these tires look like a good fit for me, but just wanted some other opinions. Any input on other tires is also welcome. And to those who are wondering I did do a search, and yielded very little results on these tires.
i love my AT2's i couldnt have asked for a better tire thus far, but the ride feels alot softer, especially turn ins and turn outs, i also got some steering wheel shimmy after they put it on, some sort of balance issue, but it comes and goes actually, just gotta take it to discount where i bought them, i will take pics and post them tomorrow for you
i have 2 sets and for AT2's i have no issues with them but the set on my 06 had 1 tire that would not Road Force balance but the place where i bought them replaced it for free and dealership did not charge me x2 for Road Force balance on it! Anyone can build a bad tire and i was surprised this new set had a tire that had 53 Lbs and would not balance but i got 4 good ones now, overall happy with them and they do not ride as smooth as the OEM Duelers and did not expect them to. now i am not scared to drive on wet grass but if you want a smooth road ride these are OK for me but nothing near as smooth as the MS/AS Michelins. It never rains here in NM so MT is kinda not needed and these tires will take the abuse of the elements better than others in my opinion and i am liking them so far!

Definately look forward to the pics. That is really what I was in hopes for. Also, what size did you go with?
