What tires?

[Skillet]

I have DynaPro ATM's load range E on my F250.  I like 'em, and they weren't hard on the wallet.

Thats their road hazard warranty,which requires you to purchase a certificate for each tire. Then if you use the RH warranty,you have to buy another certificate for the new tire.

Folks might not like les schwab but I have the Wild Country 235/85R16's on my 350 4X4 inflated to 80 psi year round and been getting great mileage so far

I used that Discount Tire warranty once.  I had a 3/4 ton Chevy and a tire had gotten a screw in it and was beyond repairable.  They replaced it with a new one.  I was happy to have gotten the warranty.  I think it was a very low $ amount for the warranty......(like $5 per tire).....just can't remember right now.  I think the tire was close to 3 years old at the time.

Discount gets my buisness, better than lester schlob...Ive been running Nitto's the last 2 years, great traction, great hwy ride., better life than toyo's. Next on the list would be BFG's.

BS.  Gotten both of the first two buried. Any tire will get stuck.    Get super swampers 

[Mudman]

Not a toyo mt fan.  Les schwabee had to replace 2 and ended up taking 4 more back.  Defective.  35s. 

[elkinrutdrivemenuts]

Cooper st maxx. A good all terrain/mud tire.  Look pretty sweet too and the rise very nice for an mt.  Not noisey either and they are much more affordable than toyos.  I spent 840 for 265s on my dirty max at a perfection tire.

I've been VERY happy with the Goodyear Wrangler Authority from Wal Mart

I have an older ford and got the 31x10.50r15 but, they look good and perform REALLY well, especially for the price.  I'm about 3.5 years into them and they still have a bunch of tread left.  They grip well in the snow and in mud.  I recommend them to anyone asking

If you buy your tires or anything from walmart move to China please...your not one of us!

Lots of different answers, I appreciate it! So what is the general consensus for load range on a 1/2 ton truck? C or E? Are they worth the extra money? I do not really care if they ride a little stiffer. I really lie the ST Maxx, the Duratracs, and the hankook atm's. I like the nittos too but i dont know any place around here that carries them.

[jackelope]

Discount sells Nitto.

Discount sells Nitto.

the closest store in Wenatchee though. I am in Yakima, so my choices are limited somewhat. We have schwabs, commercial tire, tire factory, and various other small local shops

BFG All-Terain, excellent tire.

Another guy for BFG A/T. I've got them on my 2500 suburban and on my 2500hd duramax. They wear nice and perform great. A load range E will run cooler and that will equal more miles, not to mention that a stiffer sidewall is kind of nice when you work them like most of us hunters. A diesel pickup with a trailer loaded with five horses and all your crap for a two week elk hunt, rolling down a rough mountain road, way too fast is a great test for the tires. I hear what Rick is saying and I see it comparing my 10 ply E tires on my trailer with the All Terrains on my pickup, the A/Ts are just built tougher. The BFGs cost more but you will make that up on milage. Discount has been great to work with and so has Schwabs. Discount carries the BFG's and Schwab doesn't so guess where I go? I did have a set of Wild Country's (made by Cooper) from Les Schwab on my 1 ton flatbed and they did real well also. Buying good tires kind of sucks but it beats being stuck on the side of the road because you "got a deal". Unless you don't plan on keeping the vehicle it doesn't make sense to buy cheap tires.
