A good way to decide is to go to tirerack.com not just to buy but to check the tire reviews by actual users. You can even narrow it down to your vehicle to see how others with the same vehicle rated the tires. They rate on wet and dry traction, wear, ride, etc. The high ranking of the Bridgestone Revos was what sold me and I could not be happier.

Not sure how many sets of Cooper tires I have had, more than a dozen, at one time i was running 40 cooper tires on my rigs, trailers etc. I think you will be impressed. For me anyway, best bang for buck tire out there!
I'll be putting some ATR's on my dually soon!

I just replaced Goodyear Wrangler ATS which were excellent on my dually for 50K miles with Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor ( a little more expensive) The new tires are the worst riding tire I have had in a lifetime. Goodyear has turned the truck into something I hate to drive @ 200.00/tire. A Wrangler is not a Wrangler!!

I have had Goodyear tires on a lot of vehicles that I purchased. When they wore out, I did not go back with Good Year. I think they are the biggest piece of junk as far as tires go. I had a set on NCT Good years on a Z28 when I was younger. $385 each! they lasted 30,000 miles and they would NOT hold balance. I had good year Wranglers on an Expedition, 35,000 and they were shot. Price quote to replace them was almost $600. I put a set of Coopers on it and called it good. Sold the truck with 47,000 on the tires and they still looked new. I also couldn't keep the Wranglers in balance. I have also had the wrangler HP on the wifes truck.... same thing, 35000 and worn out, not to mention they rode like a rock. I also put a set of Coopers on it.
