Dually Guy's

What tires are you guy's putting on your dually's to get the best traction during the winter months, and still getting pretty good wear out of them. I am currently running stock size. What size and style are you guy's running. Thanks in advance.

Not sure about size but I'd say the best winter traction tire for your application would be the BFG All Terrain.

Well I got pretty good traction last winter with my firestone HT's in 235/80-16 (I believe?). It was the normal stock size.

I planning on getting Cooper Discoverer M+S which can be studded. They are available in a variety of sizes and E rated. I've run other Mud & Snow tires in the past (BFG A/T etc.) but have not been able to find one that I want to buy a second set of the same tire- The Cooper's seem to get good reviews...

285s I used the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo with UNI-T AQ II. Then I went to 305s -Bridgestone Dueler A/T D693.

Take a look at this Consumer All-Terrain Tire Survey from tirerack.com. before you make a decision.

Thanks for all the great info guy's. I currently am running Cooper Discover HT's on the rear, and got absolutely no milage out of them at all, less than 15,000. I have At's on the front and their not to bad. My dad is runnig michelin on his single axle, and getting pretty good milage. My truck is a daily driver, and I do a little towing with my gooseneck now and then hauling a compact tractor. Again Thanks for the reply's. This is a great site, and full of mucha knowledge.
