Firestone Transforce A/T is my favorite truck/suv tire....We use them on our type 6 wildland engines and they are a very tough tire.
Thats what came on my Ram 2500 factory, I really like those tires so far. Seem to hold up well

I need to sponser up....I could place some orders via my oem tire program....my markup is pretty solid though.....about a whopping 12% over cost is my full retail.  No $$$$$$ in tires.

I ended up going with the ST Maxx. The local shop here in Yelm could get both the ST Maxx and the Toyo M55 but everyone there recommended Cooper over the Toyo. The Coopers were $75 less per tire too, so I went for it. Now to see how they hold up!

I've had cooper STT, ST Maxx with the centers siped, Toyo open country and now I have Goodyear Duratracs. I will be going back to the ST maxx for my next set.

How are the ST Maxx better?

I just went with Goodyear Ultra wrangler, similar to duratrac from Discount tire.  Longer life claim then most,  Mnt snowflake rated, quiet and good in rain so far.  35/20".  $314 tire before all the add on's.
MAGA!  Again..
