I hvve been running Firestone Trans Force tires on the rear of my F250. Gonna put on new before hitting the road this winter.

Any recommendations on more highly rated tires for the rears. Highway tread only.

Tire dealer quoted me these for my 2013 Ram 3500
Cooper Discoverer HT3 for a few reasons. The first one is that it is a great tire for highway and city driving but it also does a great job at providing more traction on dirt and gavel roads. The other benefit to this tire is that it has been given a certificate for being rated for Mud and Snow which is perfect for the weather that we are going to be finding ourselves in here very soon. And the final benefit that I think you will find about this tire is that it is a commercial rated tire which means that it is a strong durable tire perfect for pulling a trailer.

Can't say either way but I think I might go this route for mine.

I put the Cooper HT3s on my pickup a couple months ago, and so far I really like them. So far the road manners are better than the Goodyear Wranglers I was using. The Goodyears were excellent on ice or hard packed snow, and I am not expecting the same from the Coopers but I will find out in a month. I will wait and see how they do in snow, but I told the guy I get my tires from that I have chains and I am not afraid to use them.
