So I would like a tire that is quiet but handles well. I live in PA now but most of my driving will be on the road, however I do get off road hunting and driving around farmlands. I was looking at Wrangler MT/R with kevlar, Duratrac and I seen some others. But to be honest I dont know if I need the kevlar lined tires but its not that much more so why not. I also seen a Nitto tire mentioned in another thread. My tires only have 3500 miles on them so I'm going to sell them as soon as I get my new ones. Any advice would be great.
The wrangler is good too. Quiet with decent tread and will go over 50k

Check out tire rack reviews. I have the Firestone Destination A/T. They are excellent.

I have used the Firestone Destination A/T and they are a great all around tire. I have also used a Cooper tire but I forgot which model. They too were a great all around tire. My next tire will be either the Cooper Zeon LT3 or the Cooper Zeon LTZ.

Default bfgoodrich ko2s

I just got a set of the bfg ko2s on Monday, I am returning them do to the fact that throw rocks up at my truck, and I think they look to aggressive for my f150 with only a leveling kit. has anyone had good luck with Michelin a/t or the bfgoodrich rugged trail/ rugged terrain?

Mine came with Michelin a/t's. I've done Hankook and Cooper too. Mostly I want a nice comfy ride, but I haven't really noticed a difference between the three.

After much debate I've decided to go with a 275/60/r20 KO2. This is due to fit on my truck and cost. The tire jump in price when you start getting larger than the above listed tire.

due to cost I'm going with the 275/60/r20 K02. People have said that up to a 305 will work but its a huge price jump. A 65 will fit to but again there is a price jump
