Had stock tires for 5 years (2010 GMC Sierra) and in the market for some new tires. Looking at BFG, Good Year, and Firestone. Also figured out when getting my tires rotated that my rear wheel cylinders are leaking causing fluid to cluck up around my brakes and they squeal. This is what I was told by Skid Marks on Coursey. Are they good to use for this or does anyone have any other recommendations?

Has leaf springs too. It's a truck not a Ferrari.

As for where to do it, if you aren't doing it yourself, skidmarks is your best bet. Make them price match onlinetires.com though.

I use Skid Marks if I don't use the dealership.

I've bought two sets of tires from them - competitive prices and excellent customer service IMO. I was a little disappointed in the road hazard warranty coverage after having to use it recently, but that's not their doing as they run the program through a 3rd party.

Good business though...they call every now and then just to check and make sure everything is working as it should and to see if you need anything. I was impressed by that.

I'm narrowing down some tires, anyone have the Firestone Destination LE2 on their truck? The stock tires were A/T's but my driving is mainly highway and street roads.

Devin at Treads and Care on Woodale just off Fla Blvd has always done an excellent job for me on everything taken to him.
