Oh dear..time to reconsider..
I found on tiresavings.com the Firestone Destination A/T for 103! That sucker is top rated on TireRack.com..sounds promising!

Well yea, but I go offroad occasionally, and I don't want a tire that will leave me stranded (or one that I'll have to worry will leave me stranded).

RE: What do you think about these tires?
Well...after a bit of trouble with TireSavings.com[:@] I've got my tires in the mail FOR REAL this time!
I ordered the Toyo Open Country A/Ts (265/70/15) from tiresavings, and they confirmed the order, then called me the next day..apparently they are backordered. So I cancelled my order from them, and got General Grabber AT2s (still 265/70/15) from Treadepot.com (free shipping!).
Hopefully they'll be here by the end of the week! Now I just gotta figure out if I wanna put on some small lift shackles and adjust the t-bars a bit..hrmmmmm...

RE: What do you think about these tires?
Sounds good! Too bad you couldn't get those Toyo's cause they are nice on the road and off road. My dad has not noticed any decrease in gas mileage (where as I noticed a little (like 1-2 mpg) but I think thats due to a shot wheel bearing that i am getting replaced next week). Post up some pics once you get them.

Yea the toyo's definitely seem to be rated better on road, but they only have 13/32 of tread, where as the generals have 17/32
So HOPEFULLY i'll get a few more miles out of the generals..but we'll see!
