Tires
If price is not a factor, what are the best all season tires for a F-250 in 285,75, E load range? We are on road more than off road, but we have farms that sometime take a good tire to get to. Thanks again to all for the great info posted here. Hopefully someday I'll be able to answer instead of just ask.

A lot of people like the BFG's in a 285/75R 16 but I believe they're rated a D (3305 lbs.). I've been looking into getting a set of the new Toyo tires but they are also a D (same 3305 lbs.). I'm really satisfied with the stock Firestone Steeltex tires that came on my truck. They have 41,000 miles and it looks like I'll get at least another 15,000 out of them. They are E rated but don't come in anything larger than a 265.

I don't know why I occasionally get double posts. I tried to fix it but it will let me edit them and not delete them.
