Default Best 33-35" Tire for Highway Use

I've got an 05 Supercrew, looking for tires. I would like a set of 305/70R18's but I'm not sure which tires to get. Driving is mostly highway, some dirt roads and a few mud holes here and there. No snow, ever. Thinking all terrains. What tires do you guys and gals suggest?

Well the best tire for highway use in that size would be actual Highway Tires, but if you want an AT tire I love my Goodyear Wrangler DuraTracs! They don't make any noise and get great traction when wet and are good in snow if you ever did happen to run into any!

If you look at all of the bad reviews on them, It's 1-ton and 3/4-ton trucks. I love mine in 33" they don't roll in turns, quiet, traction. Everything you want from an AT tire.

Pitbull Growlers are magnificent... drove a truck with em last week. I haven't found a price, or dealer, but I was looking for 31x10.50xr15, so it'd be different anyway. Lots of good stories about em too. Nice wear, good tractions, takes the AT tire a litte farther into MT territory, but keeps AT manners, I know that part first hand. Supposed to be awesome snow, sand, and mud too.

You definitely have a wide variety to choose from. Some brands that I have had in the past included: Nitto, Toyo, and Mickey Thompson. They all make a good A/T tire...just depends on the look you want.
