Whether one likes them or not, Transforce tires are cheap bargain OE tires, just like the Duravis, generals, hankooks etc that mfgs slap on the trucks.
One will never see the performance and/or longevity out of these types of tires compared to top of the line or dedicated purpose tires.
Doesn't mean they are bad China bombs or anything, just you get what you pay for.
Well then why the big discrepancy with the Firestone Transforce, some say they are great others say they are terrible. I belong to the terrible crowd .
Are you saying that firestone makes two different grades of Transforce or that Michelin makes different grades of the same model tire such as their AT2's . A friend has the Michelin AT2's OE on his ford superduty, and they are wearing out just as fast as my Transforce are, we both are at 15K, and both sets are over half worn out.
From what you are saying all the OE tires are a cheap bargain, I wouldn't consider a Michelin AT2 a cheap bargain OE tire. Don't know much about the Firestone Transforce other then they are a fast wearing tire. No idea of the price of them compared to say the Michelin.
