Hi all! I have an 07 Chevy Silverado Extended Cab Short Box and I need new tires. The Bridgestone Dueler A/T's that came on it only lasted 39K miles. I am pondering the idea of putting on Goodyear Foteras with Triple Tred. If you or anyone you may know has had these on their truck, please let me know how they performed. Good or bad. I've read some of the internet reviews and still would like to hear from someone who pulls a boat a lot to see how they performed. Thanks in advance. (Let the joking begin!)

Oh and by the way. I did a search for past posts and all I came up with was this post and Fairbairn Retires. Did he quit fishing or did he put new tires on his truck too? LOL!

Bob I run these on my work van a E 350, I forgot about these, they are awsome tires, wear is awsome and traction even better, my van goes thru snow with incredible ease and they are pretty quiet. If I were to get new tires for my pu this is what I would get

I had All Terrain T/A's on my last truck. Great tires, but expensive. And that was 13 years ago! Since I got the present truck, it came with Goodyear Wranglers, and I just put my 3rd set on at 230K miles. So that is an average of more than 75K miles per set. Pretty decent in the rain and snow, they aren't too noisy on the highway. Got two sets at Sam's, and the last set at Matthews in Appleton for less than $450 mounted and balanced. Lifetime, balancing, rotation and road hazard ins. Ask for Dave Flunker.

Thanks guys. I've decided to go with the Goodyear Fortera's with Tripple Tread. I can get them for $165 each.
