What tires are you running?

I'm on my second set of Wildpeaks and I love them. I traded my other truck in so I have yet to see what kind of mileage Ill get. They do great on and off pavement and are really good on snow/ice. I had a set of BFG KOs before these and like the Wildpeaks much better....not to mention they are significantly cheaper.
 
Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my 2016 Ram 1500. Added a leveling kit and went up one size from stock. They have 35K+ on them with at least another 10K to go. Rotate them every 6K miles.
 
I bought a set of Cooper AT3 XLT's for my F250. They've got over 5000 miles on them with the camper on. The camper weighs about 3500 lbs. So far a great tire. Quiet and smooth riding. I had the ATP's before and I like these new ones much better. The ATP's started to howl as they wore down but I had no other problems with them.
 
Got some Falken Wildpeaks this year and finally got them into some good snow and ice. They are really good, better than the Hankook Dynapro A/ts which I also thought were good tires.
 
Running the Cooper STT Pros on my Tundra. 29k miles so far with no complaints. Haven’t had the chance to test them in the snow, however.
 
I have Cooper AT3's on my Ford F150 and really like their performance year round to include snow during hunting season. I am running the 10 ply tires and would not go with less.
 
Hankook I Pike studded on my F150 and mama's Tahoe....about half the year we're commuting on glare and black ice, packed snow, sometimes all of the above with water sheeting on top!
.....See people in the ditch constantly, these tires are great and keep us on the road....

I have these on my 2wd Tahoe, which is a “terrible” vehicle for living in a mountain town, between Oct and May. I put 100# of sand over each rear wheel well and I’ve yet to have a single problem on ice or in powder.
 
Toyo M55's fit your 10-ply AT criteria. Pricey, but designed to run gravel and rock without chunking. They will self clean and rooster shallow mud, but are definitely not mudders. Work great in snow and come ready for studding.
I've been through four sets and typically get 30-35,000 miles per set on a Chevy 2500HD
 
Those m55's are tough.

I've got bfg at's on my land cruiser, Cooper at3's on my diesel excursion and rbp muds on my dodge diesel truck. I tend to buy based on intended use and the vehicle weight and does it have a locking diff.

The bfg is a great tire for lighter rigs... although mine is an 80 series cruiser, it's awd with lockers so it spreads wear well. I'd not do them on a heavy truck without a mileage warranty.

The Cooper is a good compromise for all conditions with a good mileage warranty and I'll likely put them on the truck next since it is running a locked rear and high hp. The excursion is open rear, but makes around 400 hp and tows about half the time. These tires have good tow manners and are quiet.

The rbp muds are like any other mud tire. They're scary in the snow once you get less than 13/32 or so and if you run them to 40k like the guys who swear by toyos do....you'll be at 2-3/32......which is totally unacceptable to me. I dump my tires around 6-7/32 because flats, being stuck, poor wet weather performance and braking all suck at the end of a tires life.
 
I have ten ply Backountrys on my Ford Ranger. They have about 35k on them and are at about 80% tread. I'm very happy with how they've held up. I've have yet to get a flat, and that's with a lot of driving on Southern Idaho lava rocks, the Alcan, and the Alaskan Haul Road. I once slid off the road so hard that I knocked a tire completely off the rim, and two years later it's still holding air.

They've done alright in snow, but I chain up early and often.

I had a pair of yokohama geolanders before and wasn't a huge fan. The edges of the tread kept chipping off.

Those things are the best ever for slush and snow. I have tried several different sets of snow tires on my work car the past few years and I compare them all to the I Pikes for winter driving. Hands down those are the best I've used. Running Michelins now, no comparison.

Bump for mileage reviews on the Cooper stt pro anyone?
I just inheritated a 00' F250 CCSB that will be needing tires very soon.
I ran the Toyota open country R/T's on my 250 and they did fantastic. Sold the truck before it needed tires but they had about 20k and alot of life left.
I'm now running the nitto Ridge grappler on my jeep. Have almost 30k on those and can get maybe another 15-20.

Neither tire had really chucked out and has held up very well to the sharp idaho desert rock.

I ran 38x15.5 and 37x13.5 Toyo MT on my last F250, both lasted really long and did decent offroad, they're just too expensive now and I heard they're under new ownership, not sure if that is true as I haven't looked into it yet.

The truck I inherited had Cooper stt tires and they were very good in all terrian, but seemed to wear out pretty fast.
