I have decided to sell my almost-new Bridgestone Dueler A/T REVOs, size 265/75/16 and go back to a set of 275/70 REVOs.
The tires were purchased from The Tire Rack at the end of January, and currently have just over 5,000 miles. The truck was aligned at the same time so the tires have worn evenly (although there is little to no wear at this stage).
I am asking $400 + shipping and will use FedEx Ground. These are essentially new, and have no damage, no repairs, nothing. I will make sure that they are clean before sending.
For reference, I paid $135 each for the tires, plus $68.16 shipping ($608.16 total).
Feel free to PM or email.

Just curious what the difference is with the two sizes, esp making you want a diff size of the same tire after already purchasing them. I'm in the market for new tires so that made me curious.

Darryl, To be perfectly honest, I was happy with the old 275/70 tires, but kept hearing so many positive comments about the 265/75 size. So I tried it. With the auto tranny, I felt as ifthe truck labored more on hills, and we do a bunch of weighted-down road trips throughout the year. There is nothing wrong with the tires - I just wanted the old size back  See the full FS post in the Classified section. Here are the actual tires. The last image shows the 265/75 on the left and the newly-installed 275/70 on the right: ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v452/aowalter/4Runner/REVO1.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v452/aowalter/4Runner/REVO2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v452/aowalter/4Runner/REVO3.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v452/aowalter/4Runner/REVO4.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v452/aowalter/4Runner/REVO5.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v452/aowalter/4Runner/265L275R.jpg) Andreas

So what is the actual difference in size/dimensions? (I know, I'm feeling lazy at the moment to look it up)
Edit: nevermind...looked it up. so a hair wider and a half inch shorter for the the 275/70s. Interesting how the P rated tires have the wear warranty and the LT tires don't even though they have a deeper tread depth when new.
I also found it weird when shopping for tires how much a price diff the 15" vs 16" tires of the same size are. Made me wish I had 15" wheels still

The tires have been 'sold' twice already. So, they are still available.
So far, shipping via FedEx Ground would be $169 for northern California, and $94 for somewhere in Iowa....
