As mentioned above, just got my new Liberty 4 x 4. It has the Goodyear 225-75-16 - these have to go. My main requirements are good handling for twisty mountain roads, paved and unpaved, in Mexico. Critical is sidewall strength - can't deal with lots of punctures. So, had planned on either Bridgestone REVOS or Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor, 245-70-16. But they are expensive - $800 set of four mounted and balanced, tax, etc. at Discont Tire.

They have a Yokohama Geolandar AT-S, coming in at about $200 less, for $600 for the package. I can't find many comments on these - anyone with any suggestions or info?

"Have you looked on the Tire Rack site?"

Actually I have. There were some comments there (not many), but no specifc numerical rankings like they have for the Bridgestones and Goodyears.

I'm wondering if I'm taking a big chance trying to save $200.

I have the AT II on my LIberty and they have worn kinda of fast. I have about 20k miles on them are looking to replace them in about 3 or 4 months. But I do drive alot. I like the tires though.
