My '05 F 350 diesel came with General Tires. I have 53k on them now, and they are a little over halfway worn. I'll be buying new tires soon. I don't want this experience again. This is what you get with a Dunlop blowout at 80 mph.

My 99 F 150 had Goodyear ATS tires on them, and they were fantastic, but I can't find them in the size for my F 350.

I have been putting Yoko's on all of my company vehicles, good combination of handling, ride and mileage.

I have found that they also have excellent sidewall stiffness, which makes for a great towing or load carrying tire. Generally cheaper that the Michelin's

We run them on GM 2500hd and 3500hd as well as on all our Chevy express service vans.
Thats what we use. Great tires and not a bad price. My father in law is in the car biz and swears by them.

Michelin owns BF Goodrich and Uniroyal. Much the same as Bridgestone and Firestone are the same company.

I put the BF Goodrich A/T E rated on my 01 3500 Silverado and love them. They were about 2/3 the price of the Firestone / Bridgestone through Tire Rack. When I bought them they were on sale for $98 or something like that.

And whadddaya know, the LTX AND the BFG AT KO's are the exact same inner construction.. When they get to the tread molding section of the assy line some go French, some go American..


I've got about 8k miles on my BFG's.. Awesome off and on road, reasonably quiet...

If ya want the ultimate in towing, swap out for a set of either Brentz or Rickson custom drilled 19.5s and go with the Michelin XDE+2s in probably a 245/70r19.5. just grab your wallet.

New on Monday I went with 258/75/R16 Bridgestone Revo A/T''s in a "D".... I had 265/75/R16 Mich. MTX's "E" but I wanted a bigger tires. I know they are "D' but I had the same ones on my old HD and never had one issue.
