I have the Geolanders HTS's. They ride great on the road, but the winter is a different story.

From where? And what size tires? Factory? I have a set of 265/65/17 cooper discoveries now and looking to upgrade to an 285/70/17 cooper. My buddy gets tires at cost from mavis and he quoted me a little over 900 bucks installed.

Well kinda did a 180 and went with Hankooks 265/75/16 tire. The Coopers were right beside these, and these looked 10 times better! Not bad for $620 otd.

I have about 10 months of driving on mine and they are wearing nicely. The tire so far is a nice all-around performer.

just ordered a set of the Hankook's after lots of procrastinating and not really having a clue what to get, was thinking the LT version as I keep getting flats with my BFG long trails but the retailer said it was overkill so I stuck with the P series

hope they are still working out for everyone
