Which would you go with? Tire size 245/65R17.

OTD price for 4 tires installed w/ tax at Costco:

Bridgestone : $613 (65k mile warranty)
Goodyear : $576 (50k mile warranty)

The Bridgestones seem like a no brainer but thought I'd double check if anyone else has any opinions. Vehicle is 2005 Envoy w/ 145k miles on it, will probably be last set of tires I purchase for this ride.

Had SR-A on my F150 complete crap in my opinion.

SR-A comes as the factory tire on the current Jeep Wranglers. If they weren't about 2.5" taller than yours I'd say find some of the cheap take offs.

That said I always try to avoid going with factory tires. Skip the SR-As.

Recently had the Bridgestone's put on the rib's Explorer. I like them; they seem a good amount quieter and much more comfortable of a ride than what they replaced.

We put the 422's on the wife's Explorer a few years ago and they've been good in rain and snow. Goodyear makes a lot of crap IMO, especially if it is oem/standard/ie cheap. Wranglers came on my truck a long time ago and were borderline dangerous on non-dry roads compared to the Michelin set that replaced them.
