I know this has been discussed multiple times here for off roading…. But what about a truck that 99% is highway. Seeing a lot of good info on Pirellis new scorpion all season tires. Would not have thought that initially for trucks but seems to work well. Anyone have any they like? I currently drive a 20 ram with 45k miles and the factory Bridgestones are wearing out already so I don’t really want another set of those.

Haven't tried Pirellis, but I have had good results from Michelin, B.F. Goodrich, and Toyo, in that order for that kind of usage.

Nitto Grapplers. I normally get over 70K miles out of them. I've never gotten less than 70

Is it 4 wheel drive? I'd stick with all terrains if so. If it's 2 wheel drive, then absolutely get some good highway tires.

I have Kumho Crugen highway tires currently on my 2WD F-150.

I've run Duratracs for the last 325k miles.

I'm about to buy my 5th set.

You do the math

Michelin (LTX I think). Good load rating and the tread will last 60,000+ miles even on Louisiana roads if rotated regularly. I’ve seen some last closer to 80,000 miles….which you would never safely get on an all terrain or off road tire.

Not cheap but they work extremely well on wet or dry pavement. If you go off roading, there are better options.

Take a look at Continental TerrainContact A/T.

Mild A/T tire that has good reviews on TireRack and consumer reports.

I have ~15k on our FX-4 Crew Cab and have been happy with them. Quiet and good in the rain.

Michelins have lasted the longest and wore the best of any of the tires I’ve had.

I am on my second set of Falken Wildpeak A/T3 and both have been very good tires. They are not great off-road but get the job done for what I need.

Best A/T I even had was Cooper AT3 but I have never owned:

Toyo or Goodyear DuraTrac both I heard were excellent as well.

I have recently went to my first set of Toyo Open Country AT3, so far i like them. They have a great look like some of the more aggressive tires but ride really nice on the highway. I have less then 500 miles on them so i don't have any off-road info yet that will come closer to summer time.

I took the Duratracs that came on my truck off of it. I hated them but I'm not wild about anything goodyear. They started cupping with 35K on them.

I got 93k out of my last set of Michelins. Not sure how many on the current set but they are holding up great as well.
