Well I caved...
So I've been wanting to get new tires for a while now, and today I guess I got a kick in the but to get some. My front right tire started leaking yesterday, and was pretty much empty today.
Anyways, since I needed it right away, the only ones I could find were a set of Goodyear Wranglers. I even managed to bump the size up from the stock 265/70 17's to a 285/70 17. No rubbing so far, and they look way better, not nearly as much wheel well showing. So, hopefully they turn out to be good tires. In the tiny bit I drove with them so far, they felt better than the old ones. Anybody else tried these? Any issues?

I have wrangler silent armor tires, been on for about a year now, they see 3 miles of gravel every day, and they dont show it a bit. The treadwear is awsome, and I rate them at a 9 out of 10 all round. Not so great in mud, need M/Ts for serious sloppyness.
If they were a little cheaper they would be nice, but im VERY happy with em.

Well, after putting a little less than 500Km on them since I got them last week, I'm VERY impressed. They handle great in snow, way better than my old tires on ice, and still nice and quiet on the highway. I drove my parents F-150 which has new Yokohama winter tires on them, and honestly, mine are almost as good in the snow/ice. And I wont have to buy a summer set when spring hits, so I'll say that justifies the price as they were pretty expensive.
Anyways, so far, I'd give em a 9/10.
It's just too bad I have to spend almost 1400 bucks to replace my steering rack and pinion assembly tomorrow.
