All-Terrain Tires
So Im looking for new tires for my 2005 Super Duty 4x4. I have tried the search feature with little help. I was looking for 35x12.5x17 tires 315/70/17 same size? Also my truck will have an 4" lift on it for the new tires.
Most of my driving is on-road I would say about 95% I would like them to be great in snow, rain, and highway. I want All-Terrain Tires but like some M/T tires as well.
I have been looking at:
Toyo Open Country M/T
Goodyear Wrangle MT/R Kevlar
Goodyear DuraTrac
General Grabber AT2
BFGoodrich The All-Terrain T/A KO
Hankook Dynapro MT
Toyo Open Country A/T Tire
Firestone?
Bridgestone?
Any others I should look at
Thanks ~Gage~

I just got 45 k out of my procomp extreme AT's and they still have enough tread that I can tire shop at a relaxed pace , I have the 325/65/18
unfortunatly they don't have a decent next size taller so I am looking at Toyo and Nitto
ps the most complained about tire I have read about is the duratrac

I can speak for Goodyear, I have 35'MTR's and they handle any and everything that I throw at them. I hate saying that, I've never been a big fan of Goodyear,
I have the Toyo Open Country's on my F150 (AT's), like them a lot.
The Cooper Discoverer (HT,AT & MT) is good all around tire as well and they're not too expensive.

yup I think in landscape terms the 1/2 inch minus really liked to get in the tread ,, I used to pull over after getting my boat and pick/kick them out ,, the procomp A/T have a wider tread opening and I never had an issue

Thanks guys....I was just looking at Pro Comp Extreme AT's, theres no dealer nearby. I would order online but what if they send me a bad tire? I have to pay to ship it back?
What online dealer is good for tires/wheels?

The only downside about ordering online is how to get rid of your old tires. Most shops won't take your old tires without charging a fee and it's usually not worth it at that point when you do the math.

you pay the EPA disposal fee up front they or a local facility have to take the tires IMHO

I've online through Tire Rack, 4 Wheel Parts, and Discount Tire. The last two have a physical presence near me, so comfort wasn't a problem, it just saved a lot of the hassle with the tires being at the store when I was, since I apparently only want tires in sizes that the stores don't frequently stock. Tire Rack was a lot more questionable, but the local installer in Lubbock was great and made me feel a lot better.
I've bought tires, welders, and air compressors online, and never had a single problem, just go through a site that is reputable.
