I've had every aggressive A/T you can buy pretty much, and BY FAR the best performer has been the Goodyear Duratrac. The only downside is they're the noisest "A/T" I've had, but they're not M/T loud.

This'll get heated if the same folks show up in this post as one from a while back. :chuckle:

Yep, I love them, just not the price.
I think going to try these.

Walmart has goodyear wranglers for like $150 per tire. Most of those trucks with big $500ea knobby tires are pavement queens at a fashion show.

My personal opinion is that unless you're going muddin', which most of us really aren't, a highway tire with more plies will last longer, drive smoother and make you overall happier. Note, they don't look "cool".

Best truck tire I have owned are Michelin LTX M/S2. Ride great, good grip on wet and snow. I do swap them out for Blizzaks which is the best option for me. After the initial investment it's about the same cost long term and you get better tires during both seasons.
I was literally typing this as you wrote the same thing. Great minds.

Ok so I’ve had the toyo R/T for the last 30k on my pickup and looking for something different. F350 do a lot of hunting and stuff in the outdoors but don’t really need m/t but open to suggestions. What are your opinions on a good all around tire that is good in everything mud snow clay rain won’t be doing anything crazy just need a good all around tire! Thanks all!
I am running the Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my F-350. I have liked them so far. They seem to be a good match with the truck.

For whatever reason people seem to inflate the answers of mileage on tires they buy. I got 25,400 out of Toyos at, which was horrible. I am now on the Les Schwab equivalent. I’m at 28,000 and have about 40% left but don’t like the tire itself that much. Wanting to try coopers next but not really interested in going through another set of tires in 25k miles.

How many miles are you guys getting out of the Maxx on 3/4 and 1 tons?

So I took a gamble and bought a cheap set of off brand 35’s for my 3/4 ton cummins. It was $900 out the door, dirt cheap. They were kanati trail hogs. I’m very pleased with them. I had 35k on them and sold the truck they probably had 20% ish left. They are the off brand equivalent to the Goodyear wrangler duratrac

Where did you get those Jrebel?

1 ton gas Ford. I like them for the farm and spend a lot of time on gravel. I always struggle to get any tire to last close to 30,000-35,000 miles. Once they get down to 25% they get pretty soft and are prone to rocks pushing through tread and I have also had ply separation(big blisters on tread) when I get below 20%. I am almost through my third set on this pickup.

:yeah:I have The Cooper discoverer at3 on my Gmc 3500 4x4. 27k miles can hardly notice any wear. Did great in 2ft of snow on my moose hunt in 2019 rated for 60k mile and loadE

Firestone Transforce A/T is a great tire. Ran a set of transforce A/Ts on my F350 for a LONG time. Highly recommend them. Ended up buying a set of Falken Wildpeak A/Ts last spring from Tires West in Warden. So far, very good wilt the Falkens. They are quiet, and ride smooth. Give both of these tires a look!
The falkens are great I hear

Bought some in June for my silverado. Good grip and just as important to me, they are quiet.
My Cooper A/T 3 on my colorado, though the tread is lasting very well are square and loud. Not terrible loud, but slightly irritating loud.

Just ordered a set of Ridge Grapplers for my 3500. Had them on my old truck and have been happy with their performance.
Just put a set on my RAM 2500 Diesel. What did you get for mileage out of them on your old truck?
Post by: haftard on September 30, 2021, 09:06:28 PM
Turns out that the st maxx are not the correct load speed rating because I have a king ranch they have to be at least a 126q so time well wasted with them ordering the tires for me. So they said they will match price on a few different tires. One being the duratrac. Anyone have any input on these being they don’t have a mileage warranty.. truck is mainly for hunting camping and that sort have a company vehicle for work so mileage warranty is not necessarily needed. Thanks to all!
the durratrac should last you 50k. my mom had them on her chevy 2500 diesel and they lasted quite a while. i got a used set on my toyota and i finaly just got sick of looking at them lol.

I decided to try Cooper and was not impressed with their wet and snow performance.
I went to Falken ATW3s and they have been excellent on my F150.
Smooth, quiet, and lots of use on basalt cobble and no chunking.
I'm at, I think, 41k now and they easily have another year left, I'll look at them next fall and decide if I need a new set for the winter.
