Hello, I am looking to replace the factory Firestone tires on my 21’ Ram 2500. I would like something great to towing my 25 ft trailer and comfortable for daily driving. If possible last longer than the Firestones did. Thank you
 
Hello, we do mostly summer, fall and spring towing. So, maybe an all around tire. Do want something great in snow, hills, mud in case back woods camping and fishing. Thank you

I used Michelin LTX A/T2 tires on my F350 DRW and was pleased with them overall. They were very quiet and I averaged 80,000 miles per set. However, they were not good in mud or any slippery surface.
Currently I've got Falken Wildpeak A/T4W tires on my Toyota 4Runner. A very impressive tire but a bit to noisy for my tastes.
I ran BFG TA K02 tires on my '96 Grand Cherokee for many years and was very impressed with their performance in all kinds of weather and intermediate off road use. I would hope the K03 tires would be an improvement on an already great tire.
I'm leaning towards the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Ascent though. Because of their reputation and 60,000 mile warranty.
 
Hi,
Thank you for your response. Did either of these tires do great in rain? Towing? Thanks again.
 
Hi,
Can I ask, is it because they work well for the ride, weather, towing or just over all, the best tire you have had?
Thank you

When I took delivery of my truck, the first thing I did was replace those Firestones with a set of Continental TerrainContact ATs. Really loved them for towing my travel trailer, smooth and quiet on the highway, great in the rain. Only area I was looking for improvement was in winter snow/ice. All the reviews and tests show that the new BFG KO3 is one of the best. A bit expensive, but those who have them seem to love them.
 
Depending on where you live, I have these tires for sale. I have a 2022 2500.

Thread '[SOLD] Brand new (less than 500 miles) Open Range AT Plus tires for sale'

**No LONGER AVAILABLE**
These Open Range A/T tires (LT275/70R-18) are virtually brand new with less than 500 miles on them. They are excellent AT tires and I would keep them except my old ears have become quite sensitive to road noise. I swapped them out for HT (highway) tires.

See the invoice for the price I paid. I'll let them go for $100 less per tire ($290/tire = $1,160 for the set) because I know that Les Schwab charges a premium for their tires.

I'm east of Seattle about thirty miles in Fall City.
