What Tires are you rolling on?
I need new tires really bad for my Chevy 2500HD they are 265/75/R16 10 ply. What is a good tire at a good price to put on a tow vehicle?

Yokohama Geolander HT/S G053 LT265/75R16 123Q(E) for the 2500HD
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.

I got the same truck, and I went with 265’s Michelin M/S E rated. The BF's are really popular, I have not heard anyone complain about them. When I was comparing ratings- wet traction, mud traction, snow traction the Michelins outperformed the BF’s, therefore I went with Michelins. I do a lot of Highway driving, and open mud tread tires do nothing for me ascetically.

Switched from Michelins to the BFG's on my Excursion and even put a set of g-Force T/A KD's on the Porsche 928GTS. They make excellant tires I think anyway.
