Re: 2500 versus 3500 Trucks

Rear ride quality in a DRW truck has a lot to do with the tire you choose. Our Goodyear(OEM) rode horridly, the Bridgstones Revos were okay but steering was numb, the Michelin LTX M&S are very smooth. Yes the sidewall is softer, but I find the tire has more grip than the Revos did and they don't...
