Default Large SUV Tires

I have a 2002 Suburban Z-71 with 62k on it. I just put my third set of tires on it. First set wer OE GY's. Then, I wen with Bridgestone AT Revos. They were great tires and I liked them a lot.

This time, no more dicking around and I went with BFG All Terrain TA's in a LT. Wow! I am shocked at how different they are. They have a much stiffer side-wall, but still ride great and are quiet despite the agressive tread. Biggest difference is the amount of sway or rocking that I did not even notice I had before especially when towing my 21 ft boat.

I am sure they will be amazing in the snow.

Yes your stang looks jack up in the back. Im planning on getting some 20in wheels for my 04 Durango Hemi. Just need the stock ones to wear out first. I think anything larger would mess up the nice road feel it has.

Being in FL, is that a 2wd or a 4wd? How do you like that thing?

4wd is useless down here plus it gives the central and south american car theives a reason to steal your truck. Its awesome, I was looking for 1 year for an SUV with 7 passenger seating that looked different and of course a v8. I test drove imports and domestics.

Let me tell you a story :love1: its like it just happen the other day. We went to the Ft Lauderdale Car Show and at the time we did not know that Dodge had a new Durango SUV. We were walking around sitting on all the SUVs checking out the new Mustang and when we got to the Dodge booth there is was. At first I did not know what it was and I thought it was a concept truck or something and when I looked at the badge it said Durango Hemi. We sat inside and every seat I sat in,being 6ft, I had more than enough headroom even in the 3rd seat. I thought to myself it must be expensive so I asked the guy,how much with the Hemi and when is it available. That same day I went to the local Dodge dealer and I bought my first new car. I love driving it,its real comfortable and smooth on the road.

Here is a vid of the intake http://www.mustangtuningforums.com/s...ead.php?t=2258
