shopping for new tires but cant decide! have ran cooper discover st's in the past look great and perform great but didnt last more than 30k Need a tire that i can run back and forth to work 50 miles a day but still get me down the back logging roads in the fall for hunting and then the lake all winter! something in the 800$ range for 4.

 

I just bought a set of the Falken rocky moutain ats. I have had them for almost 5k on the f150 and love them. I like them so much i just put a set on my kids 99 ranger. I got them from www.discountiredirect.com

 

I've run BFG All Terrain K/Os and had great luck with them. They ride great, aggressive tread, and don't wear fast at all

 

He said less than 800. I priced those as well as that's what on the factory wheels and they were over a grand and that was the cheapest I could find them unless they have rebates out they are pricey but a good tire. Not as good in the rain as these new falkens but I haven't had the falkens on for a winter yet. But the YouTube video makes look good lol. And hey if there on YouTube they must be good right lol.

 

Okay yeah I missed the $800 part I paid just over $900 for my set. I've never had the falkens so I can't compare it to them

 

Take a look at the Kelly TSRs. Prices vary greatly depending on dealer. Mine in 285-70 were right around 900 OTD.

 

i really like the way my Firestone Destination AT's handled up here in the NY winter as well as the rain or whatever else i drove the truck through. haven't taken it through any mud yet but i'm sure they will get you to your camp. i got them for about 650 OTD.

 

Look at General Grabber At2s they are similar to the bfg ats and are in youre price range.

 

Well after a week searching every dam tire known to man i decided on Falken Rocky Mountains!
For the price i couldnt beat it 644$ total threw discount tire. Spent 150 bucks less than i set aside. From the reviews and the price it was a good buy in my book. I havent had Falken tires yet but im sure they will hold up ok.

 

I'm loving mine. Tire ware is looking good I'm running them at 55psi as I do lots of highway. It's a truck tire so the ride is a little stiffer then stock.

 

I have been in the tire business for 12 years and the best A/T option for the money is the Cooper Discoverer A/T 3. They are inexpensive, have a 55k mileage warranty and ride GREAT for A/Ts. I have seen such crazy wear from crappy designs on Falkens you wouldn't believe it. And Kellys don't last and I have heard they ride like garbage. For longevity AND ride comfort avoid anything Yokohama or Sumitomo made also. They get LOUD quick and traction sucks. I have been shopping for A/Ts that are good for the road and have settled on either the BFG Rugged Terrains or the Cooper A/T3s. K/Os are awesome, but pricy.
If you're in the KY area look me up. I work at Ken Towerys and we have a $100 rebate on 4 A/T3s right now. Hope this helps.

 

55 psi will make your ride alot stiffer. Try 40 and I guarantee you will still get good mileage and ride will be alot better.

 

Just read through the rest of the thread, and I must say Dstination A/Ts are great tires for the money. I have talked to a couple folks who have used them and they never had a complaint. I think they are the cheapest of the 3 good tires I have discussed thus far, too. So yes, these would be a good choice for you, also. I apologize, I didn't think of these when I originally replied. I still think the A/T3s are better but the Dest A/Ts are similar as far as features go.

 

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.

 

These tires were on my truck when I bought it... http://www.pepboys.com/tires/details...+AT/9509474/0/

great tires,no harsh road noise,wore well and superb traction in our snow. I just decided to change out (after nearly 2 years) before needed to my Nitto Terra Grapplers to go for a larger tire.
