Looking for suggestions for new tires for 2010 Transit

[gordow]

My Continentals are almost burned out at 42,000 Kms and are starting to look around at alternatives and i wonder what others have replaced them with ,, being the stock size i mean not upgrading rims etc.

I've been toying with the idea of light truck tires instead of the passenger tires , even though the ride might be a little rougher , with my travel on rough roads and hauling a lot of weight at times and the different types of weather i encounter in a year , i would like the more aggressive tread found on the LTR's.

Has anyone changed their passenger tires to the LTR's??

Thanks for your input everyone.

I need to find new tires to replace the OEMs. I'm just over 71,000 km, and am having problems (that others have gotten at lower mileages) with tears, radial cords/wires breaking & poking through, and a chunk came out of one tire. I assume by now you replaced your tires. What did you replace them with and how do you like the new tires?

I have had good luck with the Nokian Entyres, I posted about them before, but it seemed to upset some other forum members, so search for the older posts.

I put on michelin defenders on and love them!

Do not buy Hanook tires for your TC. I bought a pair in the stock size and one of them exploded on I-95 in FLA. Scary stuff! I would not trust Hanook tires ever again.
