What tires are you guys running on your CTD's and how do you like them? I currently have Firestone Transforce AT's and they are ok but I really don't like Firestones all that much. I am thinking about running some 265 BFG AT's on the next go around for tires. Thanks Harley
I have a set of 265 Michelin LTX M/S tires that I scored for $200 off of some 16 year old kid that chucked them off to the side in place of some Xterrains and a lift. He had just bought a truck from an older guy and the seller had put the new Michelins on for better resale..... the kid didn't care because I guess road Michelins aren't "cool" enough....lucky for me. They are GREAT on the road. They ride good, are quiet, wear extremely well, and have about the best load rating you can get without going to a larger rim and HD tire. They are not that impressive offroad but do well in the rain. I'm tossing around what I plan on getting when my Michelins are wore down. I plan on 16 or 17" Weld Super Single rims with bullet caps. (preferably 17's so I could reuse them on a future newer truck that comes standard with 17's) and either a Firestone M/T or BFG M/T in the stock 265 size. I like the look of the mud terrains and would like to do some sled pulling in the future. Plus I live on a ranch. Also, from what I have heard and seen with the BFG's, the M/T's and A/T's wear about the same speed.
My truck came with the Michelin LTX M/S 265's and they were great ! Great tread life . I went with BFG's ( 315's A/T's ) at replacement time because I wanted a taller tire and the Michelins did not offer anything bigger in that tire style. So far the BFG's are doing fantastic - no complaints. The "D" load range BFG's ride a whole lot softer than the "E" load range Michelins. Tom
