Don't know if anyone has/does use them off the top of my head, but try running a site search. You may find out information about that tire, or you may find one that you prefer. Good luck. Search

My wife has the goodyear triple tred assurance tires on her car and they are the best tire IMO. Last winter here in WI we got alot of snow and her car went through anything. Made her care handle better and brake better. If they had bigger sizes like 285/70/17 I would maybe have them on my truck.

They get great reviews. Tirerack.com is full of people that think they are great. I've never had much confidence in Goodyear tires thanks to some pretty poor performing sets of Eagles back in the mid 90s. Man those tires were crap. That said, I never thought I'd buy Firestones either but I have a set on my Jeep and they are great.

I realize you are asking for people that actually have a set installed... but do let us know what you think if you end up buying them. All of those reviewers can't be wrong.

I had then on my 04 sierra and loved them. Very to no road noise. The stick pretty good. If they would make them in 20" I would of got them for my 07

My wife had them on her car, they were done @ 40,000 and 8 flats. One tire had three patches alone, She did not get another set. And yes I check air pressure weekly.

Hey Don. I can understand the 40,000 mile wearout possibly being an issue but how can flats be the tire's fault?

Hey they do make them for 20" cause I'm running 275/55/20's and I just had them order them. Can't wait to get them on!!!

Bad batch of rubber compound?, too soft, puncture too easy. No flats on the Firestones she had before, and no flats on the Goodyear Eagle GT HRs she has now. We drive almost the same places, Ive got 50,000 on my Bridgestones revos, not one flat, YOU tell me?
