Diesel Truck Tires

I'm not a big fan of bfg's either after my friends telling me they got 15k out of them. Both were on newer model duramax gmc's. Out of the ones Mtn.man mentioned, i like the coopers and Toyo's.

EEEGGGHH noway. BFG's are the most overrated tires in the world.

Lok into Cooper, Kelley, MultiMile, Toyo. all make good LT tires with better milage than you will ever see out of a BFG Overpriced stuff.

BFG's are expensive but I will keep buying them based on my experience. I had a set on my last 3/4 ton and got almost 60K on them. Probably could have got 65 but winter was coming and we live in the hills so it was time.

I have had them on jeeps that I took through some serious rocks and they were tough as nails. Great traction off road and good manners on road.

Not sure what to think of the nitto selection. They seem awesome and are relatively cheap. Almost seems too good but a lot of guys love them. I'm a little concerned with tire weight on my current pickup as gas MPG is something I'm trying to preserve. I'm almost due and I'm 95 percent sure I'm getting BFG'S.

It seems like with some tires it's really hit or miss. Ex. The huge difference in miles out of the bfg's.

Also, if you need to check out prices, here's a few websites that I looked at before buying. I ended up finding the best price and then having discount tire match that.

30 to 50k on a set of all terrain tires isn't gonna happen. Have you looked at the Michelin LTX AT2 tires? I know they aren't the most aggressive, but they are a very good tire.

I get 55k out of my BFG A/Ts that are only D rated on my cummins towing 8-10k almost daily. My dad get 65k on the same tire but E rated.

I'm on my second set of Nitto Trail Grapplers. The size I use is 35-12.50/17. I got 50k out of my first set that I replaced just last week. I run them on my 2009 Dodge Ram 3500 with the Cummins. Some people hate on them for whatever reason, but I have nothing but great things to say about them.

Haven't tried these but had terrible luck with the TerraGrapplers

It's all about who you know when it comes to buying some things

Pro Tip: Look at the mileage warranty on the tire. Buy the tire at costco. Take your truck in and when the tires aren't living up to their mileage guarantee they just replace it. You don't need to ask. They just say "Your tires are beyond the specs that are guaranteed and we're replacing "x" tire" No mess No fuss. I use them for my bimmer that doesn't get more then 6,000 miles per set but the warranty says 30.

I have a set of new BFG AT/trail (something like that) waiting in the garage. A little less aggressive than the standard AT's. Bought mine on craigslist for 350 dollars mounted on some ugly gray steel rims. Guy wanted pretty rims and bigger tires on his new truck. .I was getting quoted prices of over 1000.00 for 4 new tires. Bought these and have some cash left in my pocket.

I will say that my truck, Dodge 2500 has had only two sets of tires in 122,000 miles. First were factory Michelin and the ones on it now are Michelin. I think if your looking for high mileage tires these can't be beat on a heavy truck.

I'm running Falken High Country A/T 245/75R16's on my 2004 F-350 Crew Cab 6.0L PSD. They've done well so far.

I currently have Falken HC on my F250 crew PSD truck - they've worn down very quickly and I don't spin my tires or haul heavy loads. Very disappointed with their mileage. Maybe got 10-12K road miles on them.

I'm either going to Costco or with Michelins the next time unless someone shows me a better tire for wear.
