Toyo AT2 or duratracs for sure. I have Toyo right now 295/70/18 and I love them. Buried the truck to the frame but was still able to wiggle out and the still look almost new with 20000 on them. And I have buddies that have had duratracs last 60000 miles.

and, while they are a great tire, the Duratracs are classified as an MT not an AT. In Dawson Creek, BC (a real working town, where 1 out of every 2 trucks is a Ford - oil wells and such) Duratracs are by far the most popular tire up there. And yes, they wear kinda fast.

I want to say that they are considered the AT tire mainly because the wrangler MT/R and the fierce attitude MT are more of the MT style tire.

I almost bought some MT/Rs, after a friend of mine just bought some (awesome looking tire, BTW), but my friend was quickly corrected; the MT/Rs are NOT a mud tire (MT), the MT/R references "Maximum Traction", not mud terrain. (hey, that's a Goodyear rep talking... whatever.)

As was said, it'd be hard to buy a bad tire anymore.

I had ATZ P3's in LT285/70R17 for about a year. ride quality was good. they had a bit of a hum to them. it was their snow performance that left me slightly disappointed.

The Toyo Open Country is my all-time favorite series of tire. hands down. I've had six sets of ATs (both the original and the II) on my current and last F150 and three Jeeps I've owned. I have the HT on my Honda CRV and put them on my mom's Acura MDX as well. and I've now got the RT on my current truck and plan on finding a set of MTs for a 17" or 18" wheel next year when I go up to a 6" lift. the overall performance of the AT has been awesome without compromise for me. awesome on road, quiet, never hurts fuel economy, great in snow, dirt, and mud. they're reasonably priced and last a long time. one of the sets I had on a Jeep in a small P-metric 16" size went 65k miles, and then I upgraded to different wheels and tires and sold those ones with 6/32" of tread still remaining.

Completely stock 2014 Ford F150 FX4 with a Leer shell and 275/65/r20 BFG K02's

Waiting until 100k mile dealership warranty expires to level. Looking at replacing the grill soon.
