would appreciate comments and or bashing of the brands (or me)

2----------YokoHama Geolandar A/T G015

3----------Toyo open country A/T 2

4-----------Falken wildpeak A/T 3W

No Cooper’s meet your criteria? There are sooooo many tire threads on this forum. I’m running nittos right now, happy with the wear, hate the added weight (expected for 35’s) but will probably get 55,000 miles out of them. But I’ll go with coopers next go’round.

Are your tires shot already? Why the load capacity? Are you planning to overload your 250?

I use the Yoko 015's on Subaru Outbacks. They ride well and I like the sidewall protection. If you don't ever go off-road, there are better tires, as AT tires don't work on the pavement as well as road tires. Road tires offer better traction, ride, and lower noise than AT's. Good luck!

I had two sets of nitto terra grapplers g2 (LT) on my old f150.


now I put ridge grapplers,285/75/18.(skinny 35” ) on my gasser f250

both are fantastic. But I like the ridge grapplers a lot better. Better handling and traction in the snow/ice. Better in the mid and wed grass/dirt.
No added road noise.
and they look awesome

I've had yoko geolandar on 2 pickups, sold 2nd truck before I wore them out. Other set on 99 250 with 7.3, overloaded that truck several times and tires handled well, got about 75000 out of then on that truck. So my vote is them

ForCal be right


Posted this since you had Yokohama.

Geolander X-AT.

I don't have an opinion on those others. I've never owned a truck. I've always taken the bus. The short bus.

I like those X-AT's, a little over 5K. Does that mean anything? No.
But no issues so far

I don’t see the Michelin’s in the size the OP wants.

Yeah... I’m way too lazy to look it up but that’s not a popular size.
