What 35's to get?

I have a 97 F250 HD 4x4 lifted 4" currently with 35" Nitto Terra Grapplers. They seem to be pretty good tires but don't have much tread left. I just got the truck a couple weeks ago. I am looking for a new set of tires and want some advise on which tires you guys are having good luck with. I would consider another set of Terra Grapplers but am keeping the options open. This truck sees at least 5 miles each day of gravel and dirt roads but also considerable highway time so something in between and AT and MT would be perfect. Any input is appreciated.

Thanks,
Todd

X2 on Nitto's, this is my 2nd set i've owned! They ride great & have a pretty long life to them!!

I like BFG ATs I run them on both my trucks in 35s and they do great

I love the BFG KM2's. Toyo's are really good too..

if ur lookin for a good AT...bfg all terrains are the best to get..they last longer than terra grapplers..and cheaper i do believe..i know a guy who got 77k out of his BFg Ats...i personally have Toyo Mts on mine...which i have read last the longest of any MTs...but i shall find out!

I got 90 K out of my BFGs on a different truck. When i sold them the guy still ran them for another year.
I personally like the Walmart liberator brand. i ran them on my work truck and I consistently get 60 K out of them. Im on my third set on the same truck.
Pretty much any tire ot there will run 40K.
I would go for a all terrain since longevity and highway seem to be your main concerns.

If the truck spends a lot of time on the highway a/t's are a no brainer unless you have the money to replace mud tires. However if you get mud tires just keep the right pressure in them and rotate rotate rotate
