Highway Rib Tire choices
most common here is people looking for tires with more load range, or more aggressive off road, but what do you recommend (based on usage) for tires that are only used on highway during the summer? I...

I want tires with solid outer tread bar to help eliminate feathering. I want quiet and most of all I want them to last a long time.
when its time, I may look into the cooper discoverer HT3 (50K mile tread wear warranty)
But my new truck is 2wd, dually with cast/polished wheels that I can't rotate. fronts always wear faster, so I think once its time for front tires, I will buy 4 for the rear than I have 2 pair to install on front as time goes by
IMO you won't like the solid rib tire like the XPS Rib or better yet cost wise the Bridgestone R-250 as it has no tread lugs for traction in green grass or a muddy campsite or winter driving on snow pack or slush. A empty 2wd DRW needs all the help it can get under those circumstances.
The Cooper HT-3 or similar tread would be a perfect choice with its two solid outside ribs and a all season type tread in the center for a bit of traction. Cooper recommends this tire for commercial service.
