What tire have you found to be long lasting, and durable. I have a 2016 3/4 ton truck that is my every day driver ,plus my tow rig. I'm coming up on a new set of tires ,as the original ones (Firestone Transforce E rated) have 21,000 miles on them and are shot. My son has the same truck,only a year older .pulls a 5th wheel,and just put on a set of BFG's AT2's that didn't last 20,000 miles .Yes he kept up on rotation. So ,what are you guys running that have given you very good milage and service, and have a some what AT tread. My tires are 20inch.--Thank you for all recommendations

I can't speak to 20" tires, and perhaps there's a difference, but my experience with both car and truck tires up to 18" is, the few times I've chosen other than Michelins, I have been very disappointed with getting more than 30,000 miles. My most recent set of Mich truck tires went over 60,000 miles. However, and it's a big however, I had a RR blowout while pulling my FW last summer. I don't know if it was caused by a road hazard, age, or miles. It was the first Mich blowout I've ever had. Regardless, I still went out and replaced the whole set with more Michelins.

Toyo Open Country AT2Cooper AT3 or ST MaxxI have the BFGs on my truck too and they aren't wearing very well. I got a deal on them and didn't really expect them to wear real well, but I was hoping for a little better than I'm getting. They do perform well otherwise. The snowflake rating is very handy in the winter.

I run and like the BFGs and get considerably better mileage. I wonder if it’s the difference between Arizona heat and Oregon cold. We need to run snowflake rated tires, so that may have something to do with it. Lots of good choices. Best of luck.

7 Yrs FT traveling every week towing 14K FWReplaced OEM 'highway' tires within first 8mos cause they had terrible traction issues with set of Michelin AT2s \\60,000 miles later new set of Michelin AT2s not so much because the first set were 'worn' out but because I am anal about having good tires.1st set still had good tread left but had been towing almost at MAX Load rating so it was time for new tires.2nd set ....same 60,000 miles and time again for new tires.3rd set...Cooper Discover. Only have about 7,000 miles on these. Do Not like them. Seem to be OK as far as wearing BUT they feel like they are square in cold temps and take too long to warm up/round out. Disappointed....ran Coopers for years but will not be going back to them when these are replaced.Michelin served me very well
