Leaning toward Terra Grapplers in 275/65/20 but I have not completely decided on them

I liked the duratracs but someone today just about talked me out of them

Also considered Zeons, BFG rugged terrain and toyo open country

Nittos seem to be the most popular

My current set is the terra grapplers. They pull good enough... They're also good up to 125 mph. 295/70/17s fwiw

I have the BFG AT. Run two sets on my truck. You're looking at 70,000 miles if you take care of them.

First thing that should be posted in the OP is what you are going to do with the tires. Percentage off-road/on-road. Type of mud. How important is noise?

Nobody can guess because all terrains run from basically street tires to glorified mud tires

It's a daily driver, not looking for serious offroading


Just looking for something a little better than the stock tires but I want a tire that won't wear too quickly

If you are off road much you should consider Mickey Thompson ATZs. I ran them on my 07 Tacoma and they were reasonably quiet and smooth on the highway and were the best AT tire I've ever had off road (close to a MT performance wise)

They had 80k on them in this pic

Buddy just got the BFG Rugged Terrain tires. They do okay in the mud and aren't too aggressive to affect the street ride or noise.

I have seen a lot of all terrains, but just bought my first set after having 4 sets of mud tires, two of those being Swampers. Quiet and smooth for me might not be the same as for you. Good in the mud to me might not be good in mud to you.

My new tires are the MT ATZs. They are very quiet, but still pull well in the mud. Quiet to me means that I can talk on the phone while on the interstate

ATZs and Duratrac are the most aggressive all-terrains on the market. Might be too much for some people and just a waste of money.

My 35x12.5r20 ATZs were $1600 at cost. That wasn't like when a car dealership tells you their cost, that was the actual cost to the tire store

I've always liked the BFG ATs. They hold up well.

Surprisingly one of the better sets of all terrains I've had was master craft ATs

The best I've ever fooled with were cooper ST's. they pull great off road and hold up great on road.
