Just purchased a 2007 GMC Yukon XL 4x4 with 99k miles. Had it gone over at the local dealership prior to buying - it was a private sale. At some point I'm going to need to replace the worn all terrain tires on it.
Been looking at Walmart and various other places online. I think I want to go with a street tire this time. Something quieter. But something with a little more aggressive thread than a racing tire or something. Or if an all terrain tire exists that isn't quite so noisy on the freeway. It's not bad now. But you can hear the tread noise in the cabin. And I won't need full on all terrain until I move to WA in a couple years. Right now I'm in Socal.
Any recommendations for a low cost, 70k+ mile warranty tire for this truck? I prefer Michilan's or Good year. But am open to other brands. I just want the warranty and a good tread that's not to loud but not slick either. Could be all terrain I guess or a street tire. (You tell me. Will I always have the tread noise with an all terrain?)
I'm seeing decent brands and 70k warranties for around $600 a set. Installed at Wallyworld is another $10 or less per tire IIRC. So I'll probably just buy from them online and have them installed there. Or have them installed there from someplace else.
Any help greatly appreciated.
