Anybody running Bridgestone Dueler AT 693 tires?

[soccerdude]

I am thinking about replacing the Bridgestone Dueler APS tires on my 98 XJ with the Bridgestone Dueler AT 693 tires. I have just over 20k on the current tires and will be lucky to get 30k, but I like the road ride of my current Bridgestones. Does anyone have any experience with the AT 693 tires?

Thanks!

They're a decent tire, but its well worth the money to spend a little bit more and upgrade to the Revos. They're 10x the tire. They're better on and offroad and the wet and snow traction is MUCH better with the Revos.

The 684's are a decent tire for the $ but there are better out there in an all season tire. Be careful about the revo's, yeah badass tire but a little pricey and they have cupping issues if you don't keep them up...i.e. balanced, properly aired and rotated. HTH

Thats the first time I've even heard anyone say that. Mine havent cupped at all at 40K miles, but I keep them properly inflated, balanced, and rotate them every other oil change. The only tires I've had cupping issues with were Wranglers and BFG A/Ts.

The Destination A/T is supposed to be a really good tire for the money.

I had the 693's on my wife's WJ. Had 35,000 on them and they had plenty of tread on them when I sold it. I liked them fine. They look good and they're alot cheaper than Revo's if money is a problem. They were noiser than most people would want on a grocery getter, but she wanted a more aggresive looking tire. She didn't have any problems getting around in what little snow we get around here. Wore even, no cupping issues.
