New Tires for an F-350
My 2013 F-350 came with Michelin LT275/70/18s. They're about ready to replace at 45,000, which is a little disappointing. (Most of my other Michelins have given me 70,000+ of good service.) These were...

Oh, the HT are really a highway / road tire as opposed to all season, but they've been fine in the winter.
I had a set of HT's on a sprinter van at work, got close to 70K out of them. I would agree on the weather ability. NOT a great snow tire, but work depending upon the snow type you have. Slushy wet snow useless. Dry compacted they would be ok.

For the winter I replace my rear tires with Firestone Winterforce tires. They are one direction snow tires with deep tread - they are marked for driver side and passenger side. My truck is (gasp!!) 2 wheel drive. I run the winter tires from about Thanksgiving until March, depending on weather. So far they are great in winter, and due to limited use they still practically look new.
Again, I bought Firestone because they were the least expensive name brand tire I found. Actually, they were less expensive than most other off brand tires, too!
