Joe, I guess I should went a little more indept about the tire, Kumho, Michlin, GoodYear, Bridgestone, BFG, Cooper all brands have differant tires for differant jobs. Try and pick and it's like an open can of worms. Go with what you like but use these rules and you will get the most out of the tire you go with.

Lugs = Mud - don't wear very well

Solid Ribs = Highway - wears very well but not much traction

Sharp Edges and Sipes = Winter - Snow and Ice

Now try and pick what you do most and what you can live with, I put a set of GoodYear G-647 all around on the dually I had, they done very well on the highway but sucked in wet grass even in 4WD. I now run Pro-Grade Goodyear on my company truck 2006 F-250 , 2WD and get around 30,000 out of a set. thats not bad for what I do and where I go with what I haul.
Good Luck !
