    For $900 you can do a heck of a lot better than Bridgestones.

    I also run the factory front tire for now, because they only have about 10k miles on them if that...



    900 dollars sounds like a rip, i can get 33" BFG A/T KO's for my truck for less....

    I just bought a set of OEM BF Goodrich from Tire Rack for $597 shipped to my local tire mounting garage. They work fine for me in rain and very light snow. I have a 4WD SUV for worse conditions.
    For $900, you could buy a set of BF Goodrich OEM tires AND a pair of snow tires for the rear!
