Tires - for a truck...

Looking for tires for my 2018 Ram CTD Bighorn - LT285 60/R20 Really like the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo 3 tires, but they don't come with raised white letters. In fact, not a lot of tires in this size have them, not even the Dueler H/T 685. The only ones I can find with the raised letters are the OEM Firestones - and those are done at less than 28K miles. Discount tire says there is a Cooper model ( Discover ATP2) available in size 275/65 R20 but don't think I want to run a thinner tire, and not sure the load range matches. Anyone know of a good tire with raised white letters?

    Just had my second set of Toyo ATs installed on my CTD. Very pleased with them. I think I saw white letters as an option on them but maybe not on all sizes or load ranges. Can’t remember...

    Had Cooper Discoverer...at 26K I got RID of them
    HATED them...cold temps they felt square, lousy tires

    I ran Coopers for MANY Years on my trucks and Broncos
    Todays Coopers are NOT like the Coopers I used


    Hope folks have better experience with Cooper then I did but I'll never buy them again

    Black letters on tires are a feature, not a bug.

    I like Falken Wildpeak AT3W a lot, probably the best truck tire I've owned. I would also recommend looking at the BFG AT/KO2 but only in the "DT" version. The regular version on a diesel truck doesn't hold up at all from a treadwear standpoint. I have had good luck with Cooper and Toyo in the past.

    Firestone is hot garbage. I'm also not a Michelin fan.

    I am having the Cooper AT3's installed tomorrow. Looked at those, Bridgestones, and a few others. Cant find any known name AT tires in that size for under $300 and have no interest in spending $400+ for goodyears. Cooper AT3's my local quoted rate was $300-$340 installed. Only got 30k miles out of the factory Firestones. Hoping to get more out of these, and they look awesome in the pictures. https://www.amazon.com/Cooper-Discoverer-All-Terrain-Radial-Tire-285/dp/B07DN82SN4
