Which tow vehicle tires?

[Brewski50]

I have a Dodge dually 4x4 and I'm pulling a 38ft Grand Junction 14,000lbs
I need a great highway tire and I'm looking at the Michelin LT 235/80R 17/E120/117R.
Does anyone of recommendations besides this tire? Or any experience with this tire.
Thanks
Steve

Just put a set of Michelin 265/75-16E M/S+2 on my 01 2500. they seem smoother and grip better than my old Toyo Open Country.
Forgot why I use to drive on Michelin way back in 1968!!

I'm a little bit leery of Tire rack.. I can't really say why except that they sure do have a lot of tires.I'm sure they probably stack them in the warehouse instead of standing them and that's a bad way to store tires if they do..
I may be totally off base but it's a big expense for 7 tires. and I don't want to have a tire out of round because of storage practice.

Go to tire rack web site or americas tire web site and after putting in your size start reading reviews. Personally for the dollar I would look hard at the BFG Commercial TA.

I have used the BF Goodrich All terrain TAs and liked them very well. I got 70,000 miles out of the last set. They do not make it in a 235/80r17 but they do have a 245/70r17 which will be very comparable to the 235/80r17. I think you will like them as well as the Michelin tires at a lower price plus you get an all season tire which you really do not need in Florida but might if you sally forth to other states.
