I've seen very few Nexen tires.
I'm not a fan of Kuhmo. Most seem to wear somewhat quick and some I've seen have a new tread depth a few 32's less than competitors.

I've been getting our tires from Priority Tire for several years. Haven't had any bad tires yet.

Thanks. Nexens are fairly common around here, I have them on my truck and like them. They are kind of noisy on the highway (typical of lower cost truck tires and doesn't bother me) but ride good and work well off road. The CP762's are what I'm leaning towards right now if I don't find a good deal on some used tires.

Not sure what Hankook has in that size, but last 2 sets of dynapros have gone 65k and 72k miles on my trucks

I'm somewhat of a tire snob. I hear about people getting high miles out of tires but I never do. I replace mine way before most.

Sending me your used tires would be a great idea.

I drive about 450 miles a week with 300 or so being interstate commutes. The rest is on gravel and local roads. Expect the highway miles is a big part of it, but the Toyo High Countrys and Goodyears before the Hankooks were only good for 40-45 under same conditions.
Don't know whether it means dick as far as mileage or not, but all have been 10-ply / E range on 3/4 and 1 ton trucks. Don't need em everyday but seems cheaper than running a beater car and a truck

Not the typical 67 Chevelle specs...


Got the pinion angle set too.

I love that car Ed.

I love that car Ed.

Sometimes I hate it.
But I'm getting to a point I can see what I envisioned and that helps override that.
