I’ve only put 6k miles on my new set of General Grabber ATX’s. Thus far, very happy. On my half ton I had, I put General Grabber AT2’s on and they were spectacular. The AT2 was the predecessor to the current ATX.

Tire Rack has tests and reviews on many tires. Check them out when looking. Last set I got from them (I'm and hour away) were Firestone Destination LE 2's and they were still going 60k miles later when I traded in for my current truck. Again, not an 'off road' tire, but did awesome in rain (no hydroplaning, at all) and snow. Anyway, they were the cheapest by far at the time. To the tune of several hundred dollars less that Tire Barn, Discount Tire, etc.. Can ship to a local installer too.

My 2021 truck came with Bridgestone Dueler tires. Have 7000 miles on them. pretty good, don't you think?

 

[mikester]

I liked these and would buy them again

Open Country A/T III | The All-Terrain Tires for Trucks, SUVs and CUVs

The Open Country A/T III has exceptional wet and dry braking and handling, great off-road traction, a quiet ride, great in snow and 127 sizes.

The OEM bridgestones were like racing slicks in comparison.

My 2019 Ram 2500 came with Firestone Transforce tires. WORST tire EVER! I got just over 17k on them and were bald. Crappy traction the whole time. I put a 3" lift and 35" Toyo open country RT's and have been happy. I have about 29k on them now and expect to get around 45k.

I like Michelins. I used to think they were expensive, but now, they are all expensive.

Thats my experience with Kuhmo's. Roughest, noisiest, slickest tires I ever had and didn't even make it 25k miles. Came OEM with the vehicle...

I'm running BFG A/T KO2's on my current truck, second set on them, first set were the older "KO"s. Could immediately tell the difference in traction and tread noise. Still running KO's on my wife's 4Runner. Good traction in most conditions. No "All Terrain" tire does well in sloppy mud, but for the most part we don't deal with sloppy, deep mud here. The BFG's have been all I've run on my last half dozen 4x4's. They just work.

Haven't had a Firestone product since the 70's. Won't give them a dime. Had one of their "721" tires blow the front fender clean off of a brand new '77 Chrysler while going down the freeway. Firestone lawyered up and wouldn't pay for anything. We eventually beat them, but they'll never see another dime of my money. They can rot in hell as far as I'm concerned.

Michelins have always been good tires.

Michelins have always been good tires.

For me also!

Seem to hear that a lot on this thread

I’ve never run on Firestones but I do remember many years ago a lot of blowout stories like yours.

I don't hold Firestone responsible for all those blowouts. Even though Firestone paid the price, it was Fords fault.

I remember that. I'm so sick of hearing people say the Ford Explorer was unsafe. I had a 95 two door sport and it was not unstable at all. The problem came with Ford saying to run, it was either 24 or 26 PSI? in the tires. That was what was on the door jam sticker.
And that was the problem with the tires and the roll overs. I always ran 32 PSI in mine and never had an issue.

That's why you saw most of the blowouts and roll overs in the States where the temperatures were much higher than up here.

 

[ROUSTABOUT]

I've got five different kinds of tires counting the spare. I can't remember the brands.

A lot of it happened because they ran the tires past when they should replace. At the same time driving 70 mph all the time. Tread would peel off. Seen it happen and had it happen. I will still buy Firestone.

 

[dodge man]

Yokohama Geolander AT. Not cheap but quiet and pretty decent in the snow.

 

[Panik]

When I first got my truck it came factory with a set of Goodyear SRA's which I disliked pretty intensely. Replaced them with a set of Hankook Dynapro ATM's. Thought they were the cat's meow..... until they weren't. It was literally like a switch was turned off and I went from having what felt like amazing traction in all conditions to feeling like I was spinning slicks, even under dry road conditions.

I'm now on my second set of BFG KO2's for the truck and have been pretty well pleased.

 

[oosik]

Too much mud on my truck tires for red stripes or white lettering. My 2018 Power Wagon came with 8 ply Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac - load range E.

 

[deezler]

Michelin Defender LTX. Load range E. Relatively affordable (~$215 each for 265/60/20 E). Best blend of traction and low rolling resistance (better mpg). No burly All-terrain styling, but that shouldn't really be a top priority.

Some days I do wish I had the style of some beefy KO2's.....
