Hey guys, I ordered a set of Bridgestone Dueler Revo 2's a month ago and they still are on backorder. I called yesterday and they said it will probably be 3 more weeks. Has anyone else been affected by this? It sounds like it is a nationwide shortage of this tire. I'm guessing they are waiting for another batch of this model to be made at the factory. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had any problems with this.

Problem is, I will be moving to Iowa this summer for an internship and I would like to have the tires on before I go. Are there any other tires in that price range that would be worth looking at? I really want the bfg at's but they are way more $$.

Toyo Open Country A/T's are in a similar price range. I just got some on my X and they look nice and aggressive, but I honestly haven't had a chance to get off the pavement with them to see how they perform in mud and sand. I've always heard very good things about them though.

Hankook dynapro atm's, nitto terra grapplers and general grabber at2's seem to be pretty good by ratings and are close in price range. I'm looking at the nittos or hankooks. Good luck w/ them

I had one Firestone Destination M/T on backorder for 3 months, they said is was a nationwide thing too, hopefully you won't have to wait that long.

Any luck that I could get them to give a discount on upgrading to bfg at's?

I went in today and they said it may be 4-6 more weeks from today. I'm leaving in 2 weeks for an internship out of state so I need to get some new shoes soon. Does anyone have suggestions for tires in the same price range as the Bridgestone Dueler Revo 2's? The Discount Tire rep at the store suggested the Yokohama Geolander AT-s. Are there any others? And yes, I am still eyeing those bfg a/t's.

Help me decide. I'll be driving some highway miles, mostly around town though, but also some offroad. The extent of my offroading is general camping and sometimes some mud when I get adventurous.

I called today and talked to the manager. He checked around and found one set in Vermont. He said that is probably the only set available in the US at this team. They will be here in 5 days! Woohoo! I'm excited to get these puppies on.
