I stand corrected as the Toyos are at 59,000 miles now. I still like the Bf TA Ko better

I just put a set of Toyo open country A/T on my Silverado, really like them so far. First time I've had a set of Toyo, so far so good.
^^ditto this
I laugh like a little school girl every time I see an SUV or pickup truck from suburbia with really expensive off road tires on them, knowing dam well that vehicle never goes off road, it's so freakin ironic & funny to me.

Another vote for the BFG’ AT KO’s. I’ve been running these for two and a half years, don’t remember how many miles I’ve put on them, but it’s quite a few. Including two round-trips to Montana from N.J. They seem to be holding up pretty well so far...
My son just put some new Pathfinder tires on the '97 I gave him to replace a set of Nitto Terra Grapplers that had about 45k miles and a little over 6 years on them.
The Nitto's did very well for an A/T in mud and snow during our late season elk hunts. Tread pattern of the new tires is very similar so we'll see how they do.

...ouch.
Just got the Coopers on.They were pricey,but not the most expensive.
I paid less for several vehicles. LOL
Anyway they ride more like a TRUCK tire and are pretty smooth on my local gravel roads. Dry. More noise than others I've had,but not as bad as some.
Snow on the way so there's that test,followed by the mud.

I got a set of Kenda Klever A/T 2s on my f250, Needless to say, they have been spectacular so far.

Big fan of BFG AT. Best tire I have ever had. All I care about is traction in mud and snow. Anything else doesn’t require much of a tire. This tire is the best at these and goes +40k with ability, longer if you just run in summer, if you forgo the snowflake rating. I have run other tires but always go back to this tire and wonder why I tried another. Others are quieter or go longer but BFG AT gets my vote for what we are talking about here.
That's all I run is Cooper. Good all around tire.

Put a set of Falken Wildpeak AT3's on my F150 this past fall. So far handled well with the snow we had this winter.

I put a set of Falkens on 2 years ago. Been really good so far. Not quite the bite on icey pavement the duratracs had, but close. They are significantly cheaper, much quieter, better rolling resistance, better on really wet hwys, and look to be better treadlife.
I went from a 33" duratrac to a 35" Falken of basically the same width and my gas mileage went up.
I'd buy Cooper STT pros if I needed real offroad tires and if elk weren't so far away.

My last set of tires on my Cummins were Toyo MT's, when I swapped out for the duracraps, I had almost 50k out of them and they probably would've last another 10k. I wanted to go back to them, or the Toyo RT's, but both are on national back order, and the guy at Discount tire said it could be months before they could get me a set, so he recommended the Nitto's, and said I could expect 40k-50k out of them. I don't have any experience with them, but we'll see how long they last and how they do.
