new tires

I have a 2006 F350 cc dually with 245-75-17 BFG rugged trail tires. I am looking for new tires but that size does not have very many choices. Has anyone tried another tire in that size?

Tire Rack (a site sponsor) sells the following tires in your size:

BFGoodrich Rugged Trail T/A (blackwall and raised white letter)
Continental ContiTrac (terrible consumer ratings)
Firestone Transforce HT
Firestone Transforce AT
Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor
Michelin LTX A/T 2

The first three are highway tires, the last three are AT tires.

I can vouch for the firestone transforce a/t's. We sell them where I work. Nice deep tread, never get any complaints about them. I can say stay away from the pirelli heavy duty tires. We had them on a 350 work truck with a crane on the back, they didnt last long and rode horrible, also didnt get very good traction. We wound up putting transforce a/t's on and they performed much better.
