Hey guys ive been doing reserach on tires for my truck. I dont do much towing but on ocassion i will need to haul couple thousand pounds. I have a RC 4x4 f-250 SD SW. I dont plan on going over 35's or wider then 12.5 but what tires have lasted you the longest and done well for you in the mud and normal driving. Also keep in mind i spend about 80% of my time on the road but when i play in the mud i want to keep up with the others. any comments would be appreciated

 

This is what I have. Its a mix of a Mud tire and an A/T tire. I have not had them long, but so far wear is good. The grip is great.

Also how much did you pay for your set?

 

I have a set of 285/75/16s, they cost $852 out the door.

I priced a set of BF A/T and they were $25 more, I wanted to try something different so I went with the FC-2.

315s will obviously cost more than my 285s however $$$ is close to if not cheaper than some of the tires out there of the same size.
