Best tires?

[Eddie]

Man these Duratracs are brutal with noise. Unbearable with 50k miles…wanting to get rid of them. I don’t do a lot of off-roading anymore, and got a job with a further travel distance to and from work, so I’m looking at saving a bit on fuel mileage. Obviously I’d prefer a rugged looking tire but I need something quieter and with better (or equal) fuel economy. Any recommendations?

Just had these put on this morning.

Very aggressive and quiet. They are

Well, I could no longer stand the Duratracs….went as long as I possibly could with them. Bought the Michelin Defender LTX M/S 275/65/18’s…wow. My truck has no more vibration noises, no more humming of the tires, no road noise, nothing! They aren’t aggressive looking, but it doesn’t look nearly as weak as I thought it would with these. Thrilled.

I have the same color truck so this photo is helpful. Any regrets with this decision?

My go to AT tires have been Falken AT3W's for years. My 2020 Silverado I had 93000 miles on them and they had lots of tread left. The truck did a lot of freeway miles ( 40% of the total) and the remainder in stop and go in a small town. I have never been accused of driving slow and I typically drive fairly aggressive, tow lots of trailers and push it in the twisties. The current ride has the new AT4W's and they seem to be the same tire, I did go taller this time and they fit fairly well. The AT Falken's have always rode great, are pretty quiet, wear like iron,have good wet and snow grip .

93K on any tire is crazy! I have about 42K on my Toyo Open Countrys and can probably get to 60K which is impressive

I'm now torn between the Michelin Defenders and Bridgestone Duelers A/T ascent. My main priority is road noise and my second priority is not having the truck look stupid. These OEM wranglers are awful after 20k miles

A work in progress. Tomorrow she gets Avix 295/60 RT’s & hoping they don’t rub onbthe upper arm. 2” level kit was supposed to be here today, but actually hasn’t been shipped yet. Keeping the stock wheels, because no one, including myself have seen any like them here in the valley.
