Mine are great! I got 20k on them so far without issues. I do put winter ATs on but even the Scorpions I used once in the bush, was pushing snow with them.
Good highway tire...they're more of a highway sort of light AT tire.
I saw the same info B4 I bought my truck. When I got the truck home I looked them over closely and found dry rot cracking around the INSIDE beads of all four tires. The next day I dropped into the service dept. where I bought the truck and they inspected the tires. They ordered and installed four new ones with out any hassle at all. I haven't had any issue since. I don't go off road and the tires seem to work fine in snow and rain- I mean, it's a truck, not a racer. If I was an off-road Billybob type, I might want something different, but for Joe suburban, they seem fine to me.
Most people hate them...I've had no issue with them. I got my truck in the middle of this past winter, which was the worst for us in YEARS and I was able to drive through friggin snow banks without missing a beat. Then, when we thawed out, I had to pull my trailer through some insane muck...again, no beat missed.
I have learned something about the forum....people are VVVERRRYYY picky. Like one odd sound throws them off the deep end and badge their truck a lemon. I get it, these are expensive trucks with years of R and D...but, come on.
I'd say for 99% of what these trucks are used for, the stock tires are good. Of course there are better out there...but is it worth the extra $$$? Who's to say...

I think they are a good tire.
They aren't the best on ice and in cold wet conditions but sometimes its not necessarily the tire's fault more so the "loose nut" behind the wheel and how the vehicle is being driven.
Through an ice storm, drivers get mad because after all... they put these expensive tires on... why isn't the vehicle stopping??? I'm still driving the speed limit... and I'm skidding out of control???
Must be the tires!!!
Dam crappy tires!!!
Then they come onto this forum and decree the tires as crap.
I opted for the Bridgestones. .Wanted another truck on the lot but dealer wouldn't swap wheels. I have 2 friends that said run..don't walk away from the pirellis
So if you don't have them on your truck, what makes you such an expert on these tires?
Heres from 1010tire...
4.3 out of 5 does equal 8.6 out of 10 correct? 155 reviews?
I'm not saying they are the best tires but just like a steak knife and butter knife both serve different purposes, so do tires.
If your butter knife won't cut your steak is it the knife's fault?
