Mine came with Transforce HTs that i pulled off after 1500 miles and sold for $500. I went with Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 3 (275/70/18) and so far, they have been great.

Lol these tires are hot garbage. Slight incline driveway. Rolled the steers back against the curb and gave it like 10% throttle and it was like driving on glass. Put more rubber down in a slight spin than John Force.
More reason the 4x4 Off Road sticker was so cheesy. With these racing slicks?
does this mean physics made you adjust anything on the set up to avoid it? if so may solve my tire wear issue that appears as bad toe but meets specMy CTD trucks have all done that when unladen regardless of tire because Physics.

It proves one thing, they aren’t all terrain like they are labeled and they’re garbage. It still baffles me how they thought labeling a tire which has not a bit of aggressive tread on it nor any side lugs as an “AT” tire was a great marketing ploy. It would be interesting to find out how many of these tires they actually sell besides the ones used as OEMs? I know, you will always have that small group that will replace these with the same tires once they wear out since they are OEMs... but who would literally look at these tires and think this is a great “AT”, tire lets get a setYes, I don't stop with my front tires in the curb cutout. We have sharp/steep curbing on our drive apron, kinda like um, a wheel chock.
Not saying the TF tires are great, and I replaced mine at 500 miles, but smoking rear tires backing up an incline in 2WD with the front tires in a trench doesn't prove anything.

There appears to be a difference between the 18" and 20" Transjunks, or they have reworked the compound. On my '15 I did all of the above, and the 18" were approaching the wear bars in 13K miles. It was incredible to watch them disappear. My buddy has a '19 with 20", and they are doing considerably better.I certainly plan on replacing my Transforce A/Ts with something more aggressive, but I’m not sure what some of you are doing with them.
I have 22k miles on mine since March, with 9k of that towing, and over 1000 miles off-road, and they have about 60% tread left.
I do adjust my pressure between towing and not towing, so that may make a big difference in wear.
They’re not the most aggressive A/T by any means, but they handled Ophir Pass and the myriad of other trails I ran all over Colorado this summer ok. You’ve got to air them down for traction.
After much thought i am going to try and make it thru winter with mine(6k miles)...might regret it but i am to cheap! I know for a fact in dry dirt they aint worth a crap, hopefully but doubtful they do ok in mud and then snow. I like to keep the oem incase there is a alignment or suspension issue on new truck that shows itself in tire wear, i dont rotate oem tiresoften for same reasons, better to eat crap tires than $350ea good tires. Find out later this week truely how bad, more rain and snow in forecast! In a ideal world i would like to get 30-35k out of them if i could but performance will set my change scheduale if nothing else, shame tires so expensive.
If your toe is just in spec, it is wrong. It needs to be as close to zero as possible.does this mean physics made you adjust anything on the set up to avoid it? if so may solve my tire wear issue that appears as bad toe but meets spec
