I’ve run the pathfinders on several of my trucks. Planning on putting them on my 19 when the stock Michelin’s wear out. They handle well on and off road and did about as well as any tire on a truck in the rain. I’m in south Texas so don’t have to worry about winters either.
And Roll Tide!!!

Thank you for the info! I'm assuming you have the same stock Michelins I have or something similar. Discount Tire has the Pathfinders for $153/each in my stock size, and one size taller for $165 each. Difficult not to consider at that price point. What kind of mileage have you gotten from them in the past? They're currently rated for 55K miles.

I got at least 50k out of them. My brother used to work for Discount Tire. He was the one that got me into them. I’m going to run the 315’s so at under$200 a tire you can’t really beat that. I don’t really do much off roading anymore but they handle fine for the occasional Use and look good.

Been a Bama fan since childhood--went through the lean years when 8-4 felt pretty good. Drives my family in Louisiana nuts haha!

If you’re not in a hurry for tires, why not order the ones you said you wanted? They can usually have tires in a few days. I realize COVID may have changed that.

I'd be more than happy with 50K, especially considering the savings up front. They're pretty light too. Stock tires are 37 lbs, Pathfinders in stock size are 40, upsize are 42. I've got a lot to think about now!

Precisely because i'm not in a hurry, i'm willing to be open minded and consider something different that meets my needs. Especially if they are in stock and recommended by others. I'll take my time and consider a good deal if it arises, and if it doesn't feel right, i'll get the Revo 3's I had before. Not in a hurry at all, especially this week, since we'll get another 15 inches of rain starting Wednesday. I've played the cat and mouse game in years past of ordering tires that are not in stock. "They got delayed a few days, come back and see us same time next week." "Well, the distributor ordered the wrong size, but its the right tire." And my personal favorite, "they only sent 3 of them" lmao

Thank you for posting the photo and info! They look great, especially with those wheels. I like that the sidewall isnt too flashy either. I love the stock "sport truck" look and I'm trying not to detract from it too much--most of the AT tires seem to have really aggressive sidewalls. Decisions, decisions
