Hey guys, I just bought a new truck and had it leveled but didn't get new tires yet. I would love to find someone that wants to trade, but out that will happen. I would like something around the 285/65/20 range. Whats a good tire for the money without being ridiculously expensive? Does discount tire or anyone do trade ins?

I would check out Tirerack.com, and do some research and check out the reviews. I spend a lot more time on concrete and asphalt, so I looked for tires that have good braking, hydro planing resistance, not overly noisy, and have long tread life, but are aggressive enough to hand some mud/light trail duty on occasion. Everybody's needs/wants are different, so I would encourage you to get what you really need/want. I know for me I don't want to spend $1,000.00 on a set of tires that are loud, rough riding, have less than ideal street manners, and will need replacing after 25,000 to 30,000 miles b/c of softer earth-grabbing rubber compounds. But that is b/c my needs are different than others. If I spent a fair amount of my truck time on muddy or rocky roads, or my deer lease situation required me to go into some serious off road environments I would be looking for a completely different type of tire. For my needs, the Firestone Destination A/T tires fit the bill, and have served me well for the last few tire changes. Good luck in your search!Last edited by Bigfootwolff; 05-17-2015, 08:17 AM.
