Hi, all...

I have an '05 Limited 4x2, and I love it!

The OEM Bridgestones are nearing the end of what I consider safe tread at 19k, and living in Florida (Which is murder on tires and batterys), I'm shopping for new rubber.

I am usually a Goodyear Guy, have Assurance Triple Treads on my other vehicle ('02 Sebring Limited Convertible, which is a garage kept cherry with 21k) and really am impressed with the traction, especially handling torque-steer.

Since the Endeavor has TONS of Torque-steer, I am looking at Goodyear Fortera Triple-Tread's.

SO....who's got what in second tire sets? Any opinions/suggestions?

Check out www.tirerack.com. They have reviews on all tires for the endeavor. It appears that the "Continental" brand tires handle the best.

Hi, thanks for the reply. All my research indicates that the Goodyear Fortera tripple -Treads are the best for traction and ride well, so i ordered them last week. I'll have them on the vehicle Friday, and i'll post my results.

And by the way, in my own experience, I would not buy Continentals.

I posted a mini-review of the Goodyears under the "Oversize tires" thread.

I just put on new Firestone Destination LE's today, 235/65-17's. I haven't given them a real hard test yet, but driving around town on the way home I couldn't believe the difference. I wasn't expecting any difference at all, but I could totally feel it smoother and hear the road noise difference. I had Bridgestone Turanza's on there before, which we're fine, but very worn. So far so good for the Firestone's!
