Yokohama truck tires

[downtown]

Needing new tires for my Toyota Tacoma. I am now running Michelin X Radial LT tires on it. They have been great. Today at the tire shop the guy showed me some Yokohama Geolander H/T-S tires. For a full set they will cost me about $200 less than the Michelins. Does anyone have any experience with these Yokohamas? I know the Michelins are great, but if the Yoko's are good too, I would love to save the cash. Thanks.

My FIL uses the geolanders on his mail jeeps, he owns two, and they seem to last forever, he has always had good luck them

I had a set on a Silverado I used to own......Between my cousin and I(he bought the truck from me) we probably put 70k miles on them with no problems.

I've found this to be a good source of info... Yokohama Geolandar H/T-S G052

As you said.

I know thats a big savings but its hard to beat the Michelins. Tuff decision. One I'll be facing soon myself.

I'll also throw Cooper tires out there. Based on recommendations from several co-workers, I bought a set of Cooper Discoverer H/T's for my SUV. They were significantly less expensive with comparable ratings & tread life. I've had them for about 5000 miles and I'm quite happy. They're smooth, quiet, and have good grip both dry and wet. I've not had them in any sort of real mud or snow yet. And they're made in the USA.

I put a set on my truck 5K miles ago. They feel great, best it's ever rode and they do great in wet weather.

I like'em and Discount Tire had the best price and did a great job.

Pay attention to load rating and expected tread life.

We put yoko's on the wardens car and they did as predicted.

I hate to sound like a add for tires BUT.. there really is a lot riding on your tires.One place you should not try to cheap out is on tires.. if you have kids in the car

And I know expensive does not always mean good quality.. but still do research and go with the best rated ones..

I know myself will not put 100 dollar tires on my truck..or used ones for that matter. I pull a horse trailer with mine and sometimes have other people in my truck.. I am really adamant about having good tires on my vehicle..

I think last ones we had where Hankook and they did great.
