New Tires?
#21
Dory, those land terrains are a great all-season tire... great wet/dry traction and they are decent in mud/snow... very quiet durable all-season tire... the reason I switched was that I wanted an aggressive all-terrain tire..lol my silverado is actually 2wd and I have no tracion problems on road or in snow..
when I took them off of the blazer after about 15,000 miles (dirty, but in good shape)...

A decent Radial will suit you well for all season driving....
Silentarmors are very nice! but a bit pricy!
Tripletreads are great for the winter, but not really an all season tire.
and NJ, I wasnt trying to start anything, just voicing what I know, I may not know a lot but tires I have worked with a long time! Mounting 50+ a day...

ive never seen the tread on the Land Terrains but i have BFG Long Trail p235/70r15 and they have never let me down. theres not a lot of unpaved land around here though and i dont go offroad very often and theres no snow to speak of so i cant help ya there. however they are good in rain

Look at the tires originally spec'd on just about all of our trucks... They are 'P'assenger tires! My Bravada had the OE P235/70R15 tires on it... Even loaded, I doubt I exceeded the load rating of the tire.

I was thinking about getting the Radial Rover RVXT is Dunlop's Off-Road All-Terrain light truck tire designed to combine on-road comfort with off-road traction. The Radial Rover RVXT was developed to meet the needs of pickup truck and sport utility vehicle drivers who want to combine long highway treadwear with traction off-road and in the snow.
The Radial Rover RVXT features a rugged 4-rib, independent block tread pattern that extends over the shoulders and part way down the sidewalls to enhance off-road traction. Deep circumferential grooves, along with lateral grooves and sipes, help reduce the possibility of hydroplaning and provide dry and wet traction on and off the road. On the inside, the Radial Rover RVXT combines two, high-density steel belts for strength with Dimensionally Stable Polyester (DSP) cord that reinforces the sidewalls to provide a smooth, even ride.
The Radial Rover RVXT tire meets the industry's severe snow service requirements and is branded with the snowflake-on-the-mountain symbol
$90.00 (Each) This is also for 235/70/R15

Quinnman alot of jeeps that come in get the Wrangler RT/S
I heard good reviews for the on/off road of these tires...
I been offroading on my radials...and it handled the mudd fine untill I got stuck, so I think radials are mostly pavement tires.
