Good price good quality got here fast

I love these tires best deal I could find out there thank you Amazon

This is a tough review to write. These seem to be an oddball rated tire that splits the difference between a passenger rated tire and an actual "Light Truck" rated tire. I am satisfied with my purchase, but primarily because I am in a position at the moment that I could not afford much more expensive 10-ply "Light Truck" rated tires with more of an aggressive appearance or tread. As a "budget" option, or for someone not expecting to put these through extremely hard duty, they will work just fine. I paid an amount approximately 23% less than today's list price; perhaps as a flash sale of some kind. So for at least 25% less then the next least expensive Light Truck rated option from a major name brand manufacturer, I think I did OK.Note that while I recently joined on as a Vine Voice, these tires were purchased and paid for fully by me as a private purchase and they were not included within the Vine Voice program.First, regarding the "production date". I did not find these tires to be "old". The mfg date (last 4 digits of the DOT code on the sidewall) indicate all 4 of my tires were made in week 23 of 2022 (mid June), or approximately 11 weeks before I had them mounted (Sept 1st, one week after I ordered them). They were clearly "new". Just my recent experience (vs the 2-3 year old reviews mentioning "old" tires. Mine came as sold directly from Amazon, not a 3rd party seller). My tires were made in the USA, not Canada or in Asia.These are rated as LT (light truck) tires, although they are only rated at "C" / 6 ply equivalent and have a "max load pressure" of 50 PSI, not an "E" / 10 ply equivalent "max load pressure" rating of 80 PSI as is the case with the more heavily built LT rated tires. So the pressure you set them at is more like a passenger car, vs a light truck, much like the standard Goodyear Wrangler passenger rated tires that came with the truck OEM. When I had the original Goodyear Kevlar's (my 2nd set of tires) or the BFG KO2's (3rd set of tires) (both E/10 ply, 123 rated tires), I kept them at 50 PSI for daily driving. These are set at 34-35 or so. And they ride just like the original OEM passenger rated tires (although they do have a "light truck tire" profile, the profile doesn't run fully out to the outer edges of the tire, as in the sturdier LT rated tires, particularly the very aggressive looking BFG KO2's. It presents as a bit scalloped appearance and peaks more toward the middle of the tire in appearance, vs a passenger rated tire with a wider, flatter belly and that is more "rounded" toward the outer edges as it transitions to the side walls).These have a 113 load index rating (approx 2535 lbs ea) vs the OEM door sticker rating called for of 114 (approx 2601 lbs). Many of the higher end 10 ply truck tires are load index rated at 121 (3197 lbs) to 123 (3417 lbs). My truck's curb weight as equipped is about 5900 lbs (2012 F150 FX4 with tow package and 4WD). Its GVWR is 7350 as equipped, leaving only around 1450 lbs of spare weight capacity. Put two large adults inside, and that drops to below 1000 lbs spare weight capacity (as expected for a "half-ton" rated truck). So I am not going to be approaching the approx 11k total weight rating (of all four tires combined) even with these lower rated tires. If, though, you often expect to overload your truck well beyond its GVWR (think a pick-up truck loaded cab-high with broken up concrete), perhaps these aren't what you need.The tires are much, much quieter than the KO2's I previously had on my truck, or even the older (original version of) Goodyear Kevlar's LT rated tires. They also handle differently than the 2 sets of LT tires I previously had on. Rolls much more into turns (vs the jarring hard, turns of the firmer 10 ply LT tires) and leans a bit more, but with a better feeling of traction. Although the tire traction seems a bit better than the two heavier, 10-ply LT tires I have previously had on the truck (particularly as they aged and dried out), friction is such that a sharp, firm punch on the accelerator pedal at a stop light will still cause the rear tires to break traction and slip just a bit (in 2WD, on dry asphalt). I expect slightly better gas mileage than the heavier tires. These were listed at 49 lbs ea, vs 55.2 lbs for the KO2's, for example. The tech changing the tires still said they were a bear to change (vs passenger car tires), although reportedly no more of a hassle to balance than most other heavy truck tires, particulary using their new mounting and balancing machine (installed at Pep Boys).These have a 60k mileage warranty (10 k more than the BFG's), but as LT rated tires they do not have a UTQG rating that you can compare to other tires with (treadwear, traction, temperature ratings). Best estimates I have seen is that these are probably 600-640 treadwear rated, and A/B or B/B "traction/temperature" rated tires.Compared to another full set of BFG KO2's, these ended up being just over 1/3 less. The KO2's are legendary in off-road performance and appearance, terrible for road noise, and a hard jolting ride (especially as mine approached 4 years and 60k miles and started to harden), but I am doing less heavy hauling and less off-road stuff as I get older, and for now these Goodyear tires will work just fine. If I was a bit younger, a bit more active with my truck, cared more about how cool they look, and had the surplus cash, then there are other options one might consider. For daily drivers that still have a 3-mountain peak M&S ("mud and snow") rating and seem like they'd have OK performance in snow or off-road, these will do (although admittedly "3 peak" / "M&S" rated tires are becoming more and more common and the rating is seen on many "All Season" non-"winter" dedicated passenger tires as well). Especially for the price, these are a good deal.Footnote: these have white lettering on one side, all black on the other. They are non-directional, and can be mounted inside out for whichever presentation you prefer.

Great tires. Date code was within a year. Came as expected. Last set I had almost 70 k on them. If it wasn't for winter coming up I would run them out

Bought 4 of these tires at same time. Thought I was getting what I saw online - 10 ply rating (which takes 80 psi max air cold). The pics in their deceitful ad shows Load Range E on the tire. Tires arrived and Walmart installed them for about $120, disposing of my old tires which still had some good miles left in them. Next day I go to add air because my TPMS stated low tires. Then I see on the sidewall “Load Range C” and my head explodes. I haul heavy trailer loads on a daily basis and Load Range C tires are dangerous in such an application. Try to return them and hopefully have new tires sent first but Amazon wants the old tires shipped in boxes with labels attached. Pfft! As If?!! They didn’t come in boxes! So I go to Discount Tire and they only have Michelin tires in stock…. $1700+ later I’m taping barcodes to tires that cost me a full day to deal with and caused me to waste another $100+ on mounting and balancing. SO TICKED OFF!!!

They perform well

awesome

Description said "10 ply rating" but they are only 4 ply.
