I don't have them so I can't speak from experience, but I bought my Coopers from Discount tire and when I asked about the Revos the guy I spoke with said they were a good tire but they were wearing faster than a lot of the other choices. They seem to get good reviews.

I just went Toyo Open Country AT 2's they have fairly aggressive tread yet they ride smooth and there's virtually no tire noise, a tiny bit of hum if you get them up to 65-75mph range but I have to listen for it. Just the normal tire white noise at lower speeds. Be advised they come in 3 different plies, 4 ply, 6 ply, and 10 ply. I opted for the 6 ply they were only 2 pounds heavier than the 4 ply and more aggressive looking, the 4 ply have rounded corners you will see what I mean if you check them out. I can hear my engine and the wind again vs the loud Duratracs they replaced.


These replaced a set of Goodyear Duratracs, worse tire decision I ever made I got rid of them after only 15k miles. They never could get them balanced, my whole truck vibrated, steering wheel, the last few months an annoying buzzing started in my steering column, lots of tire noise.

I have the Revo 2's on a 11 screw 4x4. They are only good for dry pavement. Wet/snowy conditions they are garbage-almost a liability-no traction in Michigan winter. But at the same time they are not snow rated like Goodyear duratracs or the adventure tracs.
I have 37k on them and have about 8-10k left. I am not an aggressive driver and don't spin tires.
I also lost a it 1-1.5 mpg with them.
Stock size and replaced oem Goodyear SRA.
I've only off-roaded on 2 tracks so not really off roaded but they were "ok"

My next set will NOT be the Revo 2.

I had the same problem with a set of Michelin MS/2's. I went through 2 sets and they wouldn't balance. I had to hold on tight to the steering wheel otherwise it'd pull to one side. Really disappointing for such a highly rated tire. I got my Toyo's put on and the problem is gone, I can let go of the steering wheel at any speed and it will pull dead straight. Ride great, quiet, Love them.
