Pick up truck tires

[Bumblebee]

So I will soon be in the market for a set of tires for my Ram...

I am thinking of a set of Toyo Open Country H/T II

Has anyone else run these tires and if so, how are they?

I tried a set of Toyo's on my F-150. Very problematic. The belts shifted on multiple tires. They argue with you while you frustratingly out more miles as they only had like 30K miles. By the time they agree to pro rate as defective they only valued them at 30%.

They are a hard no for me.

I run Coopers with pretty good results. Good ride quality. Good miles.

Good to know this....

Which Coopers?

I have winter tires already and I'm looking to replace the OEM Wranglers...

Toyos are the best truck tires. 50-60k out of a set

See, now I knew this could be a good thread....

What Toyos do you run?

Same tires?

 

[GMbusa]

Same tires?

Huh?

 

[Bumblebee]

Yes, 35's on my LOWERED truck.

Sure makes it look different when lowered...

My truck is stock stance and I'm just looking for a decent set of all season (summer) tires...

I can't go with an actual set of summer tires as the weather is up and down here so I need a set of tires that could handle a bit of snow if necessary...

 

[GMbusa]

Mine are all season. Drive them all year. Plus being lowered improved my fuel mileage.

I've been using a set of continental TerrainContact H/T tires since sept 2020 and have put about 25k miles on them. The warranty state 6 yrs and 70k miles, I doubt I'll be getting close to that. I prefer to get new tires sooner rather than later. I didn't buy them for the mileage though, I bought them for the reduced road noise and comfort. They handle well in dry and wet conditions. I can't speak much for snow.

I'll look. But I believe they are Cooper HTs.

what type of driving and what size are you looking at

Just general driving with very little to no off road. I switch to winter tires in November.

They are 275/60/20 (factory size)

id personally stay away from m/t tires if u never “off road.” they are heavy make more noise poor rain grip and don’t last as long. i have had good luck with toyo m/t and a/t. i dont see why u wouldnt with those h/t tires. tread pattern looks street friendly.

I've used Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs exclusively for years... had them on a Jeep TJ, two Dodge Dakotas and a Ram 1500. My wife also has them on her Jeep Liberty. Excellent traction in all conditions, long wearing, low noise (for a M+S rated tire), easy to balance, etc.

And they tend to go on sale twice a year in a "Buy 3, Get 4" deal at Canadian Tire and other Goodyear dealers.

I had Nitto Terra Grapplers on my lifted F-150 and honestly, they were heavy, noisy and sucked in the winter. I didn't run winter tires on that truck although I should have...

I run them on this truck so I don't need anything aggressive...

I'm in the early stages of looking around right now but I agree that the H/T tires look decent for road work

The Duratracs are too aggressive for what I need.

Just a heads up.. if I came off as a prick that wasn’t my intentions. I thought you were messing with me.. A regular truck rated street tire sounds like what you need.
