Good. I will be picking up a pair of the Defender LTX for the wifes acura once the sale comes back to Costco. I think it was just over 1k for her 19" oddballs.

Costco may not put them on the Acura because the Defenders tend to have a lower speed rating than what a lot of CUV stock tires had.

Hmm, I got a quote earlier this summer and they only mentioned that they would be a special order. Nothing about not installing them.

When the stock ram tires go I will likely get defenders too, or else Goodyear Duratracks. Ive had really good mileage and road noise out of those.

I like the look of the duratracs and hear good things about them, except for their road noise.

I think they might ultimately rob 1-2 mpg because they are more aggressive tread, but they are quiet on the road. Not sure how they achieved it, but they feel and sound just a hair loader than a street tire. You almost cant tell the difference. I cant anymore.

Ive owned 2 sets so far. One on the 2011 F150 and one now on the 2017 F250.

Yeah I've heard they are very quiet especially when you consider their aggressive treads. Course my Michelin LTX AT2s are basically a highway tread and are renowned for their low tire noise lol.
