They are a very popular tire for all light trucks and SUV's... Here is some history from just the LOST boards... Previous Thread 1 Previous Thread 2 If those don't have what you need, just type in REVO into the search menu and BOOM, good topic coverage. |

That pics looks like a slightly newer tread design. I know of 4 people, including myself, that had them, we all hated them. They were on 1/2 ton truck, 3/4 ton truck, Tahoe, and a Hundai Sante Fe. We all had poor wet traction problems. My dad almost got stuck in wet grass with his truck on flat ground. Other people may tell ya they love them and best tire they bought. Just my $.05 ( $.02 plus inflation  )

Gee, I hadn't heard of those kinds of issues. Looking at the picture closer: I believe that picture is the Bridgestone A/T and not the REVO... |

I have the revo's and love them. GREAT all around tire w/ low road noise. They are one of the best "wet" AT tires I have ever had. I think the bad issues were with the original dueller AT's not the Revos. In my opinion bridgestone makes some of the best tires on the market. I have put them on everything from my race car to my dirtbike to my liberty (so I guess I am a little brand loyal). Obviously they are not a great mud tire but I dont have that problem here in the AZ desert. |

I'm running them, and although I don't have experience with other AT tires (other than the original POS goodyears), I have no complaints - great in the wet and snow, haven't got stuck on the grass yet

i am on my 3rd set of Revos, without a doubt a fantastic all-around all-terrain....very highway friendly, and they did Paragon twice with ZERO issues!!! i have them on my wifes E-150 Club Wagon, and my second set on the Liberty. i almost couldnt wait to wear out the MT/R's so i could get Revos again. and btw, nearly any tire is gonna spin on wet grass....come on now.... |

if you like revos, then definitely look at Nokian Vatiiva ATs....better tire, same tread design, waaaaay more siping that goes 100% through the tread and a better price. they are hard to beat. |

P235 70 r16 Revo's Put the "P" rated tires on when the wife was driving it. Would go with "LT" tire now instead, since I'm wheeling it. With that being said, they have stood up to some abuse for sure. This is a great AT tire in the rain and snow. If you live in a drier climate like me, I'd consider the Yokohama Geolander ATS instead and save $40 per tire. |

You went from a mud tire to a AT tire.... why? noise? weight? not enough off road use? I don't think you can ever compare a AT tire to a mud tire for real off road performance. |

I have a set of Dueler AT Revo's on my KJ and luv them. Put them on in middle of '05 as I could not stand the Goodforayears that came on it stock. Looking to replace in the spring...most likely with another set of the Revos. |

Other people may tell ya they love them and best tire they bought. Just my $.05 ( $.02 plus inflation )I have the older tread design and they are probably the worst all-terrain tire that I have ever had, and I mean on-road and off-road manners. My Toyo Open Country A/T's are soooooooooooooooooo much better. Here's a pic of the old tread design
