I drive home from North Carolina to New Jersey as often as I can. Its a 1200 mile round trip. My Goodyears are definetly starting to show it !

Now that its time for some new tires. My question is... does anyone know of a good highway tire that will fit our trucks? Maybe one of a harder compound than the Goodyears? Seems to be the only available tires are the goodyears, nitto, and bfg. All of which are a soft compound.

If anyone has any input on which brand and a good place to purchase, it'd be greatly appriciated.

falkin tires last better

i have them on a mustang and they hold up real well

the sporty one looks great but your L will spin them like you where driving on a buttered garage floor

i might have spelled the tire wrong (faulkin)?

 

Does falkin make a 295/45/18?

 

i think something close

 

Toyo Proxes S/T They make 'em in our size. I ran them ALL winter, in ice and snow - without issues!!! (Of course, I had 4-60# sandbags in the bed as well).

I've been running them for a while, and even with my lead foot, have been able to keep 75% of the tread in the past 12k miles.


Love em!

 

Awesome thats exactly what i needed to know. Any idea how much they cost and good place online to buy?

Thanks,

Try TireRack or Dicount Tire Direct. I remember them being a bit cheaper than F1s on average.


Some local shops offer great prices as well... Nice to support your local business, too. I got F1s at a local shop for $190 installed.
