Tire question

Question

I'm looking to put winter tire on my F350 and have 3 choices in 275/65R20:

Firestone Winterforce LT
Toyo Open Country WLT1
Hankook RW11 i-Pike

I'm looking for any experience with any of these brands. Of the three I've had Toyo tires once (on a 2000 Pathfinder) and wasn't thrilled with them.

thanks.

Hankook is a very large Korean manufacturer that has a good track record.  For winter tires i would go on price.

I had the Toyo Open country on our last truck and was extremely disappointed in them. Worn out at 28K and noisy as all get out on the road. Have Hankook on this truck for winter tires and very happy with them, other than the 2 MPG loss from summer to winter.

Just curious why not just go with a good all terrain like the Hankook Dynapro AT or other tire.  I for one am not a huge fan of the toyo's either

A number of the highways I drive on during the winter require either winter tires or chains... while I have chains the tires add some extra piece of mind.

That makes sense.
