I will need a set of tires on my F350 CC that I keep my heavy camper on all year. We are planning on driving the dempster this fall so want something that will hold up to the gravel caring a big load. Right now I just have the stock wranglers load range E on it which have been OK, was wondering if I should go up to load range F. I have heard that road can eat up tires, what are people using for that kind of driving

Depends on your rim size, we have been running Toyo M55's on our crew trucks for a few years now. They don't come in anything bigger than 18" though.

All Weather - Heavy Duty Light Truck Tire - M-55 | Toyo Tires Canada

The M55 is a heavy duty commercial light truck tire, designed and built to handle the toughest conditions.

M55's have been a staple on BC bush trucks for 20 years.

I run the m55s on my personal truck on my second set being very happy with them for a good all-around while lasting Tire. Truck is always loaded heavy with two quads or two sleds and quite often a trailer in behind as well tires have worn very well

I had the opposite experience with F toyo MT
they got destroyed in less than 40,000. Always going with E from now on

Anyone run the Firestone MT 2
Hear great things about them and wear really well compared to the TOYO MT .

Great tire. I have them on my welding rig. 55000 km on them and like half worn. Easily get another 30000. Have them on my half ton as well studded. 35000km. Like brand new still.

Thank you ! I am waiting on a set as your comment is exactly what others have mentioned .
They say they do wonder and follow the pavement ruts a bit more due to heavy sidewall but all in all good .
Even pretty quite for such a aggressive tread pattern .

My brother in law has them on his Jeep as well. Strictly off roading. No flats as of yet and also they are about a 100 bux cheaper then anything the other tires I’ve considered

Neighbour has them on his work truck but only a handful of kms yet so no info on life span. But says they’re a pretty nice tire so far. He had those Chinese dura track knock offs before and he said they were horrible.

I recently looked at the Copper Discoverer AT3 XLT. It is designed specifically for towing. Reviews seem good.

I have the C/Ts on my 3/4 diesel, based off the m55s. Have 100k km on them and they performed well. Might try the toyo at3s next, need something a bit better in the snow/ice.

Following this thread… interested in the Firestones

 

[pfi572]

Ended up with these as the Firestone MT2 are on back order for who knows how long?
Nexon MTX
Run smooth with hardly no balance weights and F load rating so 12 ply . Tire shop said they have had really good luck with them so will see !

 

[BILTIT]

I think i am going with the cooper at3 xlt, if they are available. The toyo at3 isnt available apparently.

Yes but i want something a little better for winter driving. Hoping this will do it, getting them put on next week.

Hope they are better than the Nitto Terra grappler G2's I had.
Those things were hockey pucks in the winter. SUCKED

Hopefully, i dont think they will be worse than the toyo C/Ts. They were decent but just looking at tread these should be better.
