I love Michelin, but they're pretty expensive. My tire guy hooked me up with Hercules brand recently. They have a great wararnty. As he told me, if one is damaged/unrepairable, it's replaced at full value. That is, I get a new tire even if the damaged one is less than half tread left, and I pay nothing. I've had Goodyears that I ended up paying a depreciated amount. Never had to replace a Michelin due to damage, so I can't speak for them. So far, at aprox 2000 miles, I'm liking the Hercules.

I am usually a Michelin man for my street vehicles "that matter" because they are the best for sure. But BFG Commercial T/A seemed like a good alternative to Michelin to try, and I did on my dually a few years ago and was happy with them. BFG was part of, or owned by, Michelin at that time, so I said what the heck... | |||

Michelin is my favorite but I agree the price is hard to swallow. If that were my truck, I'd look at the Firestone Transforce or Hankook Dynapro. Billy Duhs - BD104X@gmail.com | |||

Has anyone tried the General Grabber HTS 60 in load E ?? It’s a Highway / All Season tire that is very moderately priced and placed #5 out of 39 comparable tires on Tire Rack tests. Reading the Tire Rack reviews from truck owners it looks like a 50 – 60k mile tire. I did purchase one of these General Grabber HTS 60 as a replacement of the 9 yr old original spare tire on my truck because of the low price. I have Michelin Defender LTX M/S load E with 62k on them now with over half of that towing and look like they’ll go to 100k on a 4wd 1500. No matter the mileage, at 7 yrs of age I’m looking at replacing and not running less than 4/32 of thread. | |||

I bought Cooper Discoverers for my Dodge last Spring. The Michelin's dry-rotted before they wore out. Truck is an '02, and still had the original LTX M/S2's on it (36k miles). I just couldn't justify the cost to put them back on. | |||
