    If you don't absolutely need a very aggressive AT pattern, go with Michelin AT2 in LT size. I've got an F150 super crew with 18" wheels and at 25k miles I've got 12/32" on them now. I keep them at 40 psi and they ride and handle well, and do just fine in the muck and gravel, even while pulling someone else out of the mud. This is my 3rd set, but first LT set. The P metric wore down too quick for me. I'm mainly on the pavement except for the fall/winter seasons. It did great in the ice and snow in February.

      Get the Toyo MTs and you will be happy. I've had several sets on 2 trucks and have ran Nitto, BFG, Goodyear and Cooper.

      I won't run another tire ever again from here out, Toyota MTs it will be. These have well over 75k miles on them on my Cummins and about time for some new ones, that's crazy to get that mileage from them in this Texas heat. Click image for larger version

        I've been running nitto and toyo both for about the last decade. Toyo = best tire for the $$$ in my opinion.

          I had great luck with the old style BFGs on 1/2 tons. Tried K02s on a 3/4 ton and a 1-ton. Never again.

          I have great luck with Toyo MTs and will run them again when I can find a set of 37/17s in the right load range. I've got a set of Nitto Ridge Grapplers right now because they were free.

              Another vote for K02, although I don’t have any experience with the other. Have 70K+ miles on mine and still have another 12-15K tread. They come stock on the Ford raptor if that says anything to ya. Great tire!

                My next tires are gonna either be the Falken Wildpeak AT3 or the Kenda Klever.

On a highway Queen that may be different. I’m guessing these guys saying they get 80k+ miles on a set of pickup tires are 99%+ highway miles.

                    Same here, been putting 60k plus a year on since 2011. Highways, dirt roads, no roads, from Fortuna North Dakota to Brownsville Texas. Tried a lot of different brands and keep coming back to KO2’s

                      I’ve been averaging 70-75K a year for a while. Been running KO2s for 6 years now. This year due to the increase in business and lack of help I’ve ran 105K in the past 12 months. I have yet to have a blowout or flat on a KO2. I had quite a few with the original KOs though.

                          You’re the one guessing they’re highway queens.

                            Sounds like most the miles were??? Did I miss something?

                            We were buying upwards of 200 tires a month of different brands and models. About 28 months worth of info and the KO2 sucked hind teet in about every aspect. Glad you got the miracle set. I’ll see if some of the guys still there can send me the spreadsheets with the info.

                              You don’t get it. That’s okay. He said he works in the oil patch. Lease roads, facility pads, and worse. Make sense??

                                OP- go with the KO2's. Toyo mudders are way to much for you and you will not be able to get your usual 24% off...
