Tire Recommendations for Pickup

Does anybody have a recommendation for good truck tires. See my signature block for specifics.

I'm a Toyo fan myself. They're a little squirrely when new because the tread is so deep, but 10-15k in they settle in nice.

Goodyear Wranglers on ours, with road hazard warranty from Walmart. Usually wherever we are, there's a Walmart nearby.

Another Firestone Transforce here. H/T's. They wear well, no complaints.

I get to drive in snow a couple times a month so I keep AT tire's on the Dually. I just put Goodrich K02 AT. Had them on another truck. Keeps me from chaining up. Very quiet and look good!

Thanks for the input. I've decided I need new truck tires but don't know what buy.

I'm trying Nokian Rotiiva AT Plus, an all weather (not all season) tire with an M/S and mountain snowflake symbol, and good for all year use.
They are great in mild to moderate snow and ice, quiet on dry roads and work well in warmer weather, and tow Monty very well.
I've run Nokian winter tires before and IMHO are the best out there, and so far very happy with these all weather tires.

My first tire of preference has been Michelin for years, and that comes from working in a tire shop in high school that sold and serviced all brands. While I'm sure there are other great tires out there, the Michelin LT tires have been outstanding for me. Never had a failure and generally 60-75,000 out of them. The factory installed Michelins are a different story (sorry I don't know the letter identification) same as factory Goodyears. Mostly junk. But replaced with Michelins and sail down the road. I did have a '96 F-250 with Coopers and they seemed to wear well and had great durability. YMMV.

I've always believed in Michelins, but the one's that I have on my truck are about 3/4 gone with barely 32,000 miles on them. I may look at a different brand soon. JT.

I've got about $15,000 on my Michelins that replaced my factory Bridgestones (73,000 miles). The tires still look like new. I run 60-65 in the front and 70-75 in the rear when hauling the Monty. Really pleased so far with the Michelins.

Goodyear wranglers on both of our Ford Trucks. Goodyear stores are most everywhere if service is needed.We have over the years used Coopers and Generals and never a issue with any of them.
