I just put a set of NITTO EXO Grapplers on my 2500HD. I pulled the Hankook ATM's off and when my 3500HD gets here I will take the Michelin AT2's off that and will be traded back on the NITTO's I have on now. The ATMs will end up back on my 2500HD when it is traded in. Interestingly I made this deal about a month ago and did the deal with my tire guy on my take off Michelins. He now has a whole room full of take off Michelins which have come off of new or near new HD's. It appears no one is staying with the Michelin AT2, they are now only giving $100 per tire trade for the Michelins. I gave $300 plus my new take offs for the NITTO's. Maybe it is just this area, but no one is digging that AT2.

The Hankook ATM is an excellent tire in my experience, decent traction and I was getting great wear out of the tires. I just needed something a little more aggressive. The NITTO EXO's have been excellent in snow and ice and mud so far. Hopefully they wear well, but the traction is certainly there. My tire size is 275/70/18.

I don't think it's just your area, my dad is the only person I know who likes the AT2. I am looking very hard at the Terra Grappler G2 for my next set. I have been a Michelin customer for over 20 years, they don't have OEM sizes for my truck (MS2). maybe time for a change.

Sorry to hear that, just switched from Toyo back to Michelin, started driving on them in the late 60's! I went to Les Schawb once marriage and children came along to save money.
The new Michelin M/S2+ are way better than the Toyo's and cost less.

If you like "service" and being "bent over" at the same time shop at LS!

My experiences with Les Schwab have been stellar, I've bought tires from them all my driving life. That said, they recently have become very 'proud' of their tires, and I've started buying from Big O.

Michelin LTX MS/2 have been great tires on my truck.
