about time for tires
I have a '13 s crew 4x4. Came with Goodyear wrangler SRA's. Been happy with them, very quiet and have made it about 55k. Question is has anyone found something better? Michelin is my next choice but are so expensive. I see Bridgestone has one rated pretty well on tire rack but I haven't had much experience with the brand. Any opinions?

Removing Michelin LTX m/s2,good highway tire...that's all still have 7/32 tread,will sell them .
Yes, people have found better. Many tire posts, including this one where I listed Consumer Reports ratings. https://www.f150forum.com/f2/tire-ra...0/#post3732330
What tire you get depends on your usage. Highway? Offroad? Snow/ice?
If you type into Google site:www.f150forum.com tires you will get 148,000 results. Narrow it down by adding keywords and you'll find some recent posts. Most dislike the SRAs. Remember that anecdotal comments from people, often without context, shouldn't lead you to a nearly $1,000 purchase without considering factual scientific information like that from Consumer Reports. Tire sites like TireRack.com and DiscountTire.com would give you consumer ratings that also aren't scientific, but help you compare features.
Few people have driven different tires in the same conditions to truly compare performance, wear, etc.

I replaced by SRAs at 33k with Cooper AT3s. No complaints from them other than not being that great in the snow after they got a little age on them. I ran those for nearly 40k miles and replaced them with BFG KO2s. If these wear halfway decent I will never own another brand of tire. These look awesome, are as quiet as any highway tire I have been on, and go like a mother in the snow. Check them out- I don't see how anyone could be disappointed with them. My $.02

Did you happen to look at weights when comparing other tires? I was looking at the 315/70R17, and most A/T tires come in around 65 lbs. However, from what I could find, the Wildpeaks are listed at 78 lbs.
Yes the Falkens are very heavy. I ran them briefly in 285/75-16 and they killed my mileage.
