Help me pick tires 2000 XLT
I ran the Firestones on my Expd before the Kellys, great tire, however I only got about 30000 miles out of them. Of course I was running a P metric not a LT, so I might have done better with the LT. Of course I am historically hard on tires. Having said that I have about 35k on my Kellys with at least another 20k to go. They have performed flawlessly in all conditions, I would choose them over the BFG ATs I had on my F150.
Nitto Terra Grappler - another good one for the $$$ that is decent on the road. I still say the Cooper AT3 for the win (bang for the buck) if the BFG Rugged Terrain is outta the price range.
well i ended up ordering the falken rocky mountain ats. For all the great reviews and what some others have said i think it is a good buy. 614$ for 4 tires! thats the cheapest set of 10 ply tires ive ever got. Lets see what happens with them and how they wear. only one way to find out
thanks for info man. if you wouldnt of said anything i would of never looked towards the falkens. Im glad i did. seems to be a great tire and it looks good Thanks again!
The outer strip of tread on the edges is only half the depth of the rest of the tread. imo they are not that great, BFG a/ts are still a better made and designed tire. I don't have any experience with KMs to compare them to. Oh and the tires are made in Thailand.
Disclaimer: I didn't buy them, they came with a truck I bought for cheaper than you can buy the tires new.

I must say that is pretty cheap for E-loads. What size did you end up getting? I recently got new tires, too! 265/70/18 BFG Rugged Terrains. They are awesome. Perfectly smooth, grip for days and they look awesome. Gonna end up costing me around $530(after the rebate). I don't mess with E-loads on half ton trucks, tho lol. Hope you enjoy your Falkens, too, and congrats on your purchase.

Need4Racin - That actually sounds like alignment wear... get your front end checked and that should prevent them from wearing unevenly any worse.
