stay away from the fc2s if possible imo. my expierience was they were very loud on highway, wore out fast,only got 50k out of them and they were toast, all 4 at the same time without rotating at all. and to top that off had a rough ride as well. that was in a 305/60 18.
once again just my exp though. i had heard lots of good about them thats why i tried them.

I have found Devon Motor Products to be very competitive with smaller truck tires as well (never got quotes on anything bigger than 265/65/18s), and if you are willing to drive, Adams GM in Wetaskiwin is VERY hard to beat.

My f350 has 35x12.5x18 pro comp extreme at's hard to believe but the tires have 152800 km on them. I rotated them every 10k. Ric seen them as I changed them. They are crummy in the winter though.

same tires on my 250. great life outta mine too. 96000 km, with many burnouts and 30% gravel roads, and a whack of miles pulling trailers. Rotate every 20k

I have long been a BFG A/T guy and ran them all year with great results.

My last set seemed to burn off really fast and I started looking around for other tires.

I really liked the pattern on the GoodYear Wrangler Duratracs and figured they would be good in the snow. Well they were better than good. They were the best tire I ever ran in snow and slippery conditions.

There were many mixed reviews of the GoodYears on the internet. I almost didn't buy them because of some of the bad reviews. I thought I might take them off for the summer and run a set of something else and keep the Duratracs for winter only but I haven't gotten around to it.

I did look at some of the tired you mentioned. The Nitto Grapple MT were another one I considered but got the Duratracs way cheeper.

The only down fall to the Duratracs and some of the tires you are looking at are the sidewalls. I had another truck that I ran old Wranglers on and the sidewalls were soft and it felt like the truck wandered more. With the BFG 3-ply sidewalls I always liked how they felt. The Duratracs felt like they wandered at bit when unloaded, but with sleds on the truck they feel great.

Those prices are stupid. Just looked up a price on those trail grapplers, they should be WELL under $2000, even $2000 is to much.

Heck, my last 3 sets of new tires, I made money selling them at like 75% tread, or atleast broke even....Have to shop around a lot of local prices are really high.

If people are paying that much I should really start selling new tires again.
