Well one step closer to the "dream", got a 2004 F350 king Ranch, we will be needing tires befor too long. we have wild country on there now, seem pretty decent. We wont be going any where too rugged, looking for E rated, smoother ride. So, was curious as to what your preferences are? Next up is a Travel trailer, going to keep it below 32 ft. so with any luck, we'll hit the road too!! Thanks

We have the Michelin MS AT/2. They have a decent road tread and enough shoulder tread to get you off of wet grass.
OOPs meant the LTX A/T2

Have had very good service with the Michelin LTX A/T2
Seen them for about $208 per
Used them in heavy towing service and solo touring service on my truck and have been very pleased with the ride, wear and traction.Still good at 36,000+
IMO best not to go inexpensive in a towing environment

We had gone to Sears and les Schwabs today. Sears offered Michelins MS/2. Les Schwab had decent looking Toyos (more spendy) and Coopers,( which we stay away from) May I ask where you guys purchased yours? And thank you for the feed back!!

I'll add another idea here,
While I hate the idea of spending money in national retail chains, buying tires in a place like Sears is not a bad idea. It may cost a little more, but its easy to find a store for any hazard warranty. We went with Discount tire for ours. Got the Repair or replace warranty that's good nationwide or wherever they have a store. Also covers lifetime rotation and balance. That's worth its weight on a dually considering most places charge 60-70 for a dually.

I purchased mine from the local Chevy dealer.When I buy tires they do an internet / local search for the best price on whatever I need and then match that price whatever it is.
