Goodyear Fortera Silent Armor SUV/Truck Tires

[wchain]

Anyone have any experience with these tires?

I think the only good goodyear tires are their racing tires.

The tire shop put them on my 98 Durango by mistake. They looked real nice, but I had them changed to the Wrangler silent armor technology tires that I had ordered. 20K miles and a year later, hardly any tread wear and no road noise to date. A little vibration, but that's probabally because the Wranglers have a more aggressive, off road tread that I need on the Farm. (Note: These are the straight "Wrangler" tires, not Wrangler Rt or At's". Kinda wished I had taken the ones you are looking at for a ride. At least they got the silent armour thingy down.)

Wes, my friend had them on full size '96 Blazer. He liked them, very quiet indeed, decent treadwear, but snow traction blew on them for New England winters, so he ditched them a few years later. I don't think you'll be needing to worry about snow though lol.
