Hey RTFers! Getting ready for new tires on our f250. Wanting an a/t tire that is good in mud and quiet on the road
Does such a tire exist? Looking at the Toyo open countrys but would like some input from other folks.I know everyone has there favorites and I have an open mind.
TIA

Toyo's are pretty good. I've had good luck with the Nitto terra Grapplers. I'm running a set of Mickey Thompson's right now that have 23K on them and are still in good shape.

I'am currently running hankook dynapro atm...they are well mannered on the asphalt. I have also run Nitto terra grapplers however,the hankooks are quieter but the jury is still out on how they will wear over time. But so far I prefer the hankook.....imo
hope this helps

I put Goodyear MT/R with Kevlar tires on my F150 and I drive a lot of miles for work around the Midwest. They are excellent in mud and snow both. I don't think that they are noisey at all. I got just over 60,000 miles on my first set of them.

Go to tire rack and do a comparison.

My Sequoia eats tires. I've had
Bridgestone H/T (original) ~40k, nothing special.
Bridgestone A/T Revo ~40k, very quiet at first, good traction, got noisy
Continental LX something ~40k, nothing special (but were highly rated at the time)
Michelin LTX MS2, best so far with ~12k (also have them on a Highlander)

On 3rd set of Michelin LTX M/S. First set - 95,000 on 2002 Yukon XL 3/4 ton(110,000 total miles on truck).2nd set pushed just over 105,000 on 2005 Yukon XL 3/4 ton. 3rd set have about 65,000 miles on them - same 2005 Yukon XL (171,000+ on truck). Think I'll get another 30 - 35,000 miles on tires before winter 2013/2014 comes and change again. I use load range "E" and have 8.1liter with 4.10 gears. Lots of highway driving at 70+miles per hour. The tires are spendy but I'm very happy with ride, noise, off road traction and of course milage on tires. I push them to the limit mileage wise and change before the snow flies here in Wisconsin.

Good luck with your decision

Bridgestone AT Revo one of the best tires on the road and won't wear down premature due to the weight of your truck. Just remember E load rating.

I love the ride and traction of my Hancooks.... the first thing I noticed with them is when traveling behind a tractor trailer in the rain ,at70- 75 mph, there was no loose feeling . THEY HELD the road. They do well in the field for me also...the only tire I will get again

I'm on my 2nd set of Goodyear Duratrac's. I drive a GMC 2500HD and 1st set lasted a little over 45K miles. Very good off-road and relatively quiet on hardball. I had the Toyo AT's previously and the Duratrac's beat them hands down.
