I have been saying dump NEXEN's since 2015 and sell them on CL.
I had a set of Michelins waiting to install when my factory ordered 15 LongHorn arrived. Installed the new tires at 200 miles and sold the NEXEN's for $650 first call.
The MS Michelins only lasted 40k and I received $650 to buy any tire I wanted because warranty was 60k. I bought the same, as the Manager at Discount Tire said they did have issues but they were corrected. Fast forward those Michelin's now have 67k and are still "legal" but will be getting replaced soon.
OP I have the same situation with the three tires and what is available now, not the MS2's. Stick with the OE tire size or you will be screwing with your gear ratio.
I am sure I will be buying the LTX AT2, I will post my price when I talk to my manager I mentioned.
Also get your front end aligned!!!!! Set toe to 1/64" toe in. You WILL thank me.
