    Truck Tire Recommendations?

    I am in need of some new tires and was wonder what you all recommend? My tire size is 275/65/R18.

    I have been looking and comparing some tires, and I'm leaning toward these: https://www.continentaltire.com/prod...7565r18-123s/? These tires are load range 120, the ones on my truck are 123 I belive.

    Our F350 came equipped with Michelin tires. I have used Michelin tires for years and years and have always loved the ride and handling.

    I have always bought BFG AT's. Some love'em some Hate'em. I have never had any issues with them but we don't do lots of towing. Just weekend trips and I like to aggressive look.

    We have always used BFG AT's as replacement tires for our trucks. Have had great experiences with them and no issues. We had them when we purchased our 5er and they handled the extra work fine. We now have a new truck so haven't had to replace it's tires yet. I'm sure we'll take a look at those when the time comes. Our new truck is a dually so it will depend on whether or not they will work on it.

    EddieK82, do look at the Michelin AT2 or their highway tread tire. My 2017 F350 4x4 came with Goodyear Wranglers that lasted 19,200 miles. My current Michelins have 35K on them and are half gone (warrantied for 60K). Good overall traction, ride and durability. Just a suggestion here but I have gone to Tire Rack.com to see what others users are saying and how they are rating a particular tire I'm interested in. Often you find they did track testing on the tire that gives somewhat more objective evaluation on wet and dry traction etc. etc.

    My factory Michelins LT245x75x17 on my F350 DRW are holding up great. Almost 32K miles and not even half worn. Hate to try anything else!
