Default Buying Revo's in Canada

I have been following this thread closely. Living in the USA definitely is a plus when it comes to the Revo's and price! I have priced Revo's at various small and large tire shops as well as Costco here in BC Canada. Pricing has ranged from $221 to $282 per tire installed. Costco wants $242 but only only until Sept 15th and $260 after.(Canadian Peso)

I purchased a set at $221 (265/65/17) but have to wait 3 weeks for them to be brought up from Portland. I'm sure they will be a great improvement from the Dunlops currently on my DC. I have always been a Michelin guy so this was no easy decision but certainly influenced by the positive feedback here at TS. Thanks to all who have taken the time to submit their tire likes and dislikes.

Where are you guys finding these prices at? The local Bridgestone dealer where I currently am at in Arizona is saying $750 including the road hazard, which is with $20 either way of many other places I have been to. Anywhere else I should look? Maybe I should just wait until I get back to California...

the guy originialy quoted me 730 or something, so i walked out the door. came back the next day, aisked him again what the best price he could sell them to me for was, and he replyed, well what do u want to pay for them. i said 600, knowing that was a pretty good deal did not want to push my luck to much, and he said ok. so thats how i got it for that price. just gotta be cool with them and bargen a little.

Are the Revo's quiet as compared to other all terrain tires or does that include highway tires? I have to get tires soon as the Dunlap’s have 52000 on them. I do not go off road but if the Revo's ride as good and are a quiet as the best highway tread why not.If not what is the best highway tread?

Mine are so quiet I can't believe their A/T tires! I'd definitely recommend and I'll purchase them again if my current experience with them holds true over the long haul. I have about 300 miles on mine so far.

Thumbs up

Got my 265/75/16's from a fellow TS member off of the classified ads.
All four of them have 90% tread on them, they look brand new to tell you the truth. They were sold to me for $200.00 , then I took them to firestone and had them mounted and balanced for $49.95. They didn't even charge me $16.00 for the tire disposal fee.

My total was $249.95, and I am loving them, thanks Hahynborn . They grip the road like no tomorrow . Revo's are the shiznit, way better then the crappy bridgestone that came on it from the factory.

I just got a quote from a local Firestone for $752.73 for balance, stems, and tax...no lifetime warranty. I'm going through Toyota for that (extended tire life plan). At any rate, I think that's not too bad of a deal considering I have the 17" tires. The guy at Firestone says there isn't even a set (265/65/17) available in the city of Houston - he'll have to order them and they'll be here in a week. I find that difficult to believe that the Revos cannot be found in stock in the whole city of Houston. Whatever, I can wait a week. I'm very much looking forward to these new shoes. My old shoes are...well... worn out

Angry These Revos better be worth it...

...it's been a week since I placed my order... I figured they would be here by now. I did a "check-up" call to verify the delivery. Steve (guy at counter) said they didn't come on the Wednesday shipment and he'll have to call me back to figure out why. 2 minutes later, he called me back. "Yeah, they're on 30-day national back-order." Boooooo! I'm just about out of tread (exhibitionistic ways) and I was hoping to have these installed before the Frank's Pizza Place meet Oct. 9th. Now I have to show up in my crappy Dunlops with no tread. I'm gonna get laughed at! Nevertheless, I'm quite suprised with the limited availability on these tires. Oh... these are the 265/65/17's in case you were confused. I can't believe 17's are that much harder to acquire. Ah well, they'll be on my truck soon enough and they better be the best damn tires I've driven on for this long of a wait. Take it easy, for currently, I will not

Default Taller Tires...

Matt - I chose to stick with factory specs because I didn't know how my odometer/milege was going to be affected. I will ask if it's easier to get the 265/70/17's...I would imagine harder because it's "one-off".

i originally wanted to go with the stock size, but i was told the same as u, 30 day back order crap. then the guy said that synce its not as popular of a size that we as able to get them. and some have stated that the odomerter reads fast from the factory, so when they installed the larger tires,it did not read that much off, some have stated that with gps and that once size taller that they now read dead on. but in ur case synce u like speed and i duno how much off roading ull be doing, it does slow u down a hair off the line. but they do look a lot better . best of luck finding them

Because of this thread alone, I am about to buy some. Help me choose, please...I am a novice.

He has all sizes. I want a little beefier tire, to fill in my LTD (01') fender flares. What should I get?

Additionally, I'm about to buy the American Mojave (black) to put these tires on. However, 4wheelParts says they don't fit -- wouldn't even sell them to me. But, this other guy says they are good to go.

What gives?
