Default Best oversize all terrain tire that still needs to haul?

Looking to go to a 35 inch tire on my 2013 ram 2500 deisel. I tow alot with it between 7-10,000 pounds long distance. Anyone have a favorite all terrain tire? I have always liked the e range BFG's. They haven't change for years.

What do you have experience with?

I am running 33" Cooper Discoverer AT3 tires on 16" rims and they are likely the best truck tire I've invested in. I like them a lot.

I have Toyo Open Country , 285-70-17 on my 2005 diesel Excursion. They are E rated sidewalls. Great tires and wearing well. They have a 50,000 mile tread warranty. I would suggest that 35" tires are not the best for towing since you are raising your truck, and that is not the way to go when towing a heavy load on a long trailer.

I purchased a set of wheels and two sets of Toyos from mrwheeldeal.com. They always had the best price I could find. Just shoot an email to [email protected].

Toyo or cooper E load range for sure over bfg any day

Nitto offers some really HD tires with a higher load carrying capacity then some others

So pay attention to the weight carrying capacity

Not to take anything away from the Toyo's great tires.
But BFG finally upped their game this month with a brand new replacement for the old AT KO. Its called the KO2 and has a full snow/ice rating, better traction and longer tread life.
They look similar to the old BFG AT KO but are quite different when viewed beside the old tire.
