Bridgestone Dueler Revo Tires?
Anyone have experience with these on their 3500? I've had a similar tire from Bridgestone on a smaller truck with good sucess.

I used these on a couple of smaller trucks but never on my 3/4 ton. I loved 'em but they're expensive! Made a huge difference in how the other trucks rode and handled (for the better)!

I have had several sets of Revo's and currently run them on my 06 Mega Cab 2500. In my opinion they are by far the best snow, wet and dry pavement tire.
They run the same throughout he life of the tire. The only downside is you will only get 30 - 40k out of a set.

Thanks for the input. I do a fair amount of driving in the snow, often offroad in the deep stuff. Ran some Toyo's for about 3 seasons. Good on ice but did not do well in the snow. Tread pattern clogged up too easy. Also looking at the Michelin AT2 but leaning towards the Revo's. I will decide on Monday which to order. Looked at the BFG AT's I think it was. They acutally have a "Snow Tire" designation, not just M+S like the Revo's but I want a tire that runs fairly quiet on the pavement adn I hear the Revo's are pretty quiet.

I had them and loved the traction qualities, but as mentioned above, I only got right at 30,000 out of them. I rotated every 5,000 miles too. They other thing i hated was that when I first got them, the truck drove like it was on the verge of wandering of the road all the time. the steering was sensitive and towing my box trailer was rather interesting. It calmed down a good bit after a few thousand miles, but it was horrible on my truck. Other have reported the same with tires of this design. do a search. They are Load range E.

On my 01 2500 they were great. Ran two sets of them before I switched. The Revos were great except in the gooey mud. I felt I needed a better mud tire for our property so I switched to some Toyo m55's. When these are done I think I am switching back to the Revos. The m55's are better in the mud and have been good tires but too noisey for me. I got 55k and 60k out of the Revos. As mentioned they were great dry, wet or in the snow.

They come in both a D and E range, so if you get them, make sure you get the right ones. These are stellar tires, and dramatically improved my handling on snow and ice, and do pretty darn good in muddy conditions, on caliche roads at least. I swapped my old BFG tires for these during Denver's Tri-Blizzard Extravaganza earlier this year. Instead of walking up the hill to get to my brother's house, I could drive up after the swap with no problems.
