hawks Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Needing to get a set of new tire. Is anyone running these tire? If so, do you like them. Read reviews about the noise. What's your thoughts on these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jddmj Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I have them in a 275/45/20 on my truck right now and I love them. They handle great. The only reason I have them off the truck right now is because I am getting ready to powder coat my rims. I cant wait to get them back on soon.

Are they noisey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O2 WS6 TA Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Put 15K on the set I had, no real gripes with them other than the serrated sidewall, which loved to sling tire slime onto the side of the truck...They actually rode better than the Nitto 420's I have now, (my truck sits a lot, and the Nittos take a while to work out the flatspots) but they seem to be a lighter construction than the Nitto (which is a 305/50 vs. the STX which were 285/50s). All in all, not a bad tire. Edited March 29, 2011 by O2 WS6 TA (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WretchedSS Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I rode mine for a good 20k w/ 305/40/22. Theyre awesome tires, I bought them again with my 24's. Not noisy at all. Handling was good. Good price for a good tire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jddmj Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 How long or how many miles do you have on them. Are they noisey? I have had them since about July or August.

desrtrat Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I had mine about 3 1/2 years now with out real issues. mine tend to get flat spots in then when the temp gets over 100* if it sits for a while but goes away quickly. ride/ware good about 35- 40 psi. i got them new for free and when they need replacing, i'll probably get them again..

busterz Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 On my 2nd set now. Got 33,000 mi. out of the first set but I drive on gravel roads quite a bit which wears them out faster than all pavement. I think for the price, they are a good deal. They make a bit more noise than some of the others but it doesnt bother me (I also drive a Jeep TJ and an '84 Kawasaki KLR600 thumper) The SS is still much more quiet than anything else I have - thats what the sound system is for.

catdaddy300 Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 i had them on my truck when i got it in 08 and i just had to start changing tires here this last summer good tire in all weather conditions no complaints here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Army SS Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Have 25,000 miles on mine. They are 305/50/20 and are awesome. Great handling tires in any weather, even in snow I had no issues, but they really shine on dry pavement. As far as road noise, I never really notice the road noise because of the exhaust.
