I use these tires on my '99 Jeep Cherokee, and on my '90 S10 Blazer before I traded it in. They also get great reviews.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19046876 Mon, 10 Sep 2007 14:06:42 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19036665 NanDog : Hmmm...and it really is spelled "GeoLandar" with an "a" instead of an "e"! I thought that was a typo on my down payment receipt!

Unfortunately, when I went in to get 'em today, Discount wouldn't give me both the BFG price ($20 off per tire) and my $100 gift certificate discount. I guess I understand that but it still sorta "stuck in my craw!"

Oh well..... :huh:

Most reviews of this tire are pretty good. The few negatives I've read state essentially what you've said: that when new the tires were great but once the mileage piled up, they became noisy and problematic.

I'm gonna give 'em a try. The price is right and I don't plan on keeping the old Nissan for too much longer anyway.

I'm really "jonesing" for a 1 to 2 year old Titan! :D

I should say that they are now due to be replaced! I may look at another tire depending on what comes close. Aside from cupping due to what turned out to be bad shocks (replaced with Rancho 9000's) and a tenancy to be a bit noisy, I would say they are a good tire... Just be aware that anything below 80% becomes a very ordinary tire! When mine were new I could go anywhere. Once they wore down they performed rather poorly.

Just my 2 bits.

Looked at all the 31 x 10.50/15 tires they sell and first wanted the BFG LongTrails but they aren't available in this neck of the woods.

The very personable salesperson said "Well, how 'bout the Geolanders? I think they're a better tire than the BFGs."

Plus he will give me the $123 per tire Yokos for the $103 BFG price (I haven't told him about the gift certificate ;)) I have an appointment in a couple of days.

So anyone running these tires?

I've read the reviews on the Discount Tire website and also on Epinions. Most reviews are pretty good but, as you know, you get folks who also think they're the AntiChrist incorporated into a tire! Most negative reviews said they wore out quickly and as that happened the tire became extremely noisy.

Opinions appreciated!

TIA!
