I had the Dura Grapplers on my 14 Ram dually and it was an ok tire but they were worn out at 27K miles towing about 85% of the time. I know this goes against many on here but I am not a Michelin fan and after 3 terrible sets I have bought I would not put them on my lawn mower now. I just put a set of Sailun Terramax HTL's on my truck for half the price of most other tires out there and have been very impressed so far. Don't know about how well they will wear yet but hope they do as well as their trailer tires. I run 80 psi in the front and 68 in the rears seems to be the sweet spot with 3400lbs pin weight in the bed.
These tires were made in Vietnam not China. - IdaDExplorerFalken Wildpeak AT3W. Just check them out, I know they're a lesser known brand but I'm super impressed with the set I put on my Ram last fall.

- guidryExplorer III ran Michelin and got good mileage as well. But, I am currently putting on Cooper HT3's on my truck. A little less expensive and the same quality from my extensive research.

- Grit_dogNavigator IIHaven't ever had a Michelin tire that was worth a schitt in the snow. Even the AT2. But I siped those and then they were decent in the snow.
Basically any tire any tire that has a 60k warranty isn't going to be aggressive enough or soft enough to be any more than a mediocre snow tire, at best. So there's that to consider.
None of the Michelin all season tires are aggressive enough to be considered good all season tires unless all your seasons are above freezing, lol.
Also towing in Colorado and long lasting are somewhat mutually exclusive. Colorado climate, roads and curves in the mountians are hard on tires.
We went through tires MUCH quicker when living in the mountains. So depending how much you're up in the hills has an affect.
I'd look for more of a medium agressive AT tire like Toyo AT or Cooper AT3. Smooth and silent on the highway, but enough tread profile and void space to be good in rain and snow, or excellent in snow if you sipe em. - rhagfoExplorer IIIAnother vote for Michelin! LTX M/S2
- ppineExplorer IIIToyo, Cooper, Bridgestone
I have gotten 60,000 miles from Toyos on an F-350 doing a lot of towing.
I run my rear tires mostly around 60 psi.
I don't normally rotate tires at all.
