Quietest Riding Tire for our trucks

[EZStreet]

Post your Tires!

Its time for new tires, 20" wheels. Figured what better place to ask than a board full of pampered tahoe/yukon owners! What are yall running that's:

-low on road noise
-good traction
-reasonable on price
-aggressive style

I'm running Michelin LTX M/S on my '03... nice and quiet and good wet surface traction...

I got 77K miles out of the first set... couldn't not buy another set...you didn't give size so can't help with price...

costco had best price around me...

here's a link to a pic of them

I want tyres that keeps the car going strait and from what I hear these are among the best.

Are looking at having them on all year or just summer depending where you live?

 

[EZStreet]

All year, I'm in south Texas so now isn't really an issue

I've running Kumho Ecsta STX i've had them for 2 years just summer time but there is hardly any wear on them they grip extremely well in the rain real real quite and comfortable not badly priced either!

My boy runs those on his colorado on 20's. I have to agree with you, they are nice and quite, adn cant beat the price.

Yea i'd diffidently buy them again! I got them on 22's hell they ride than my stockers!

+1 on the Michelin LTX. I had them on my pickup for years, and they helped with traction problems due to light bed weight and slick roads.

I'm in Dallas, so I see what you're saying about cold weather not being an issue. The whole metroplex pretty much shuts down at the first sight of snow & ice... but wet roads are another thing, and they handle great on wet streets.

I have LTX on my Hoe now, and they are pretty quiet too. I have stocker rims though, so you'll have to trust someone here running "rubber-bands" as to how well they ride and how quiet they are.

Anybody tried the Cooper Xeon LTZ? They look great, but maybe not so quiet?

Btw, aggressive style rarely combines with quiet ride.
