Lets talk Tires!!!

[Mudracer80]

Ok I'm looking for a good set of 35 12.50 16 tires for my F250.

I would like a aggressive looking AT or a not very agressive MT that will wear well, I put alot of miles on my truck a year and would like these to last a while. I will mainly be on pavement with an occational off-road joy ride. We never get any snow so I'm not worried about how they preform in snow.

With all the tire choices out there I cant figure out what I want.

What do you guys recommend?



Also I would like to keep as much money in my wallet as possible, so a best bang for my buck tire would be nice.

i love my toyo AT's they wear really good and are a nice tire, you dont get roadnoise and their not extremely expensive

Mickey Tompson ATZ's or those Nitto A/T's

My buddy has the Mickey Ts ATZ on his dodge and huals alot of weight all the time, and they work out great.

I have the MT mud terrain, and i like them alot, today was there first day in the snow and she did well. (probably because i dont have my chip in)

I have and will always buy the mickey thompson M/T's, I have never ever had such a good tire!

I run Nitto Terra Grapplers (AT) - dont look real agressive but wear, handle and cost real nice!

Consider Mickey Thompson ATZ (dont remember - ATZ or is it ATX?) Agressive sidewall, agressive tread - AT will give you a better ride, smoother, and quieter then a MT.

if you want a MT - consider the Hankook MT - wont set you back alot of money - is a agressive AT - MT actually stands for Maximum Traction - but handles well off road.

The Nittos handle very well off road, have a high weight capacity and cost very little compared to most other brands.

325/60r16 Toyo A/Ts are 35 tall 13 wide but you need a 10" wheel for them. Thats what is on the 04 Harley S/D picture thats in my gallery.

I consider Toyo' MT's to actually be more of an AT,...so I would recommend them to ya.

I am running the Cooper STT's. Their thread is almost identical to the toyo mt. They wear well. The Nitto all terrain wears well it just doesn't look agressive enough for me.
