Tire Suggestions Needed!
I posted this in the Misc section a few days ago, and haven't got any responses so far. I'll re-post my question here (likely more views), as I plan to get new tires very soon, and would like some thoughts based on my planned usage. Thanks!
I know there are lots of threads on tires, but none seem to answer my questions. My 2015 Platinum has 275/65-R20 Nitto Ridge Grappler M/Ts currently, and they're just about worn out. I'm going to be towing a 35 foot 5th wheel soon, and I want to start with fresh rubber. I've sort of narrowed it down to Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT, Michelin Agilis CrossClimate, and Falken WildPeak A/T3W. My driving will be mostly highway, and primarily warm weather. Does anyone have any thoughts on these three tires, or have a better suggestion? I just found out that Midas is having a sale on the Coopers, buy 3 get one free, which translates to about $1040 OTD, for a set of four. Looking forward to your replies.
Thanks,
John

I run Falken A/T3W on 4 vehicles including a F350 Dually that tows very heavy. They provide excellent stability, great traction, are very quiet and have an excellent price point. Below are a couple threads regarding the Falken tires... Just use Google and you can see real reviews of the tires you mentioned…

Ive got the coopers. Haven’t towed super heavy with them but so far they’ve been great. I don’t want to jinx it but I’m curious to see how they do once we get some snow, no issues on anything I’ve driven on so far. They’re plenty quiet on the road, compared to the worn out BFG all terrains I was running
