Tires for Ram 3500

What are people using on their trucks for E range tires. I'm looking at replacing my Michelin M/S 2 as they are wearing quickly on the outside edges. I just replaced ball joints and think that was the cause but Discount Tire agreed to give me money off some new tires. Mine currently have 35,000 miles. I like the BF Goodrich all terrain KO2 but am concerned I won't get a lot of miles out of them either.
  • Michelin LTX series with several choices of tread design

    Or

    Bridgestone Duravis with two choices

    Nothing else will last as long in time or miles.
  • Don't blame the tires for a worn out or miss aligned front end!

    Here is a pic of my MS2's on the 11 RAM Dually with 40K on them. 80 front all the time 45 rear solo and 60 loaded with 5K pin.

  • I have had great luck with Bridgestone Duelers... I just put LT265/70R17 Load Range E on mine...
  • Nitto Terra Grapplers wear well, hold big weight as Es and do well off road unless swampy. Hear good things about Goodyear Duratracs too.
  • Just installed Yokahama Goelander H/Ts and so far pleased. Really quiet and softer ride than the OE junk.

    Have an alignment done also. Granted I only run a 1500 I am looking at betting new shoes before Oct this year and that is one of my consideration tires. I have family that has ran them on their 2500 Chevy and they seemed to get food life out of them. But to be fair I bet that they spend 30% of their life on dirt and gravel roads.


    I had an alignment done also along with new axle u joints.
