Replying to: steve_ (Feb 10, 2008 8:21 pm) I recently bought a 2008 GX 470 .On standart equipment and installed options it desribes the tires as: 265/65SR17 Mud and snow tires. But, the tires on my car are Bridgestone 265/65R17 840 Dueler. This is not a snow and mud tire. (it is infact described as a summer tire): 1) I was wondering what kind of tires your 2008 GX came with. 2) We have 2-3 months of snow. Are these tires good enough, or would you recommend changing them? thanks Replies to this message: scoobman (Apr 22, 2008 3:00 pm) tturgut (Apr 23, 2008 3:56 am)

Replying to: tturgut (Apr 12, 2008 6:01 pm) My 08 came with Dunlop Grandtrek. Go to tirerack.com and look at the reviews for your Bridgestones. I wanted to swap before I bought but I wanted a larger rim and they would not do that swap. I can only say that my Dunlops did fine this winter in MN but I would not say these were excellent snows. I prefer a quieter smoother tire than a really aggressive noisy tire. I live in civilization with good snow removal and have 4 wheel drive. If I get stuck, I am an idiot.
