Recently picked up 24 TB. Looking at doing a wheel tire combo. I’ll be keeping it stioxk without level kit. I tow ski boat quite often anmd about 80% of my miles are long highway drives til I can get to the fun stuff.

I have the factory 18’s with the Goodyear Territory Mt’s. I’m quite happy with the performance and extremely pleased with the look to ride quality ratio . I however only have 10k on the factory tires and completed 1 rotation. They’re relatively new tire and not much info out there on longevity, but it they’re anything like the duratrscs they’ll be toast at 25 k. I’m currently deciding on 18 or 20. I know the Nitto Ridge Grappler seems to the hottest thing , but looking for tire with little more bite in snow and cold weather being up in Minnesota and northern WI as well as Northeast. (Yea I get around ). I’ve had just about every p rated tire on my Yukon XL’s/Suburbans over the years , coooers, wild peaks , ridge grapplers and open country’s. Probably liked the Wildpeaks followed up with coopers , but the LT hybrid AT category is completely new as I move to a pickup.
I’ve read the LT version of the wildpeaks weigh crap ton .

I run about 25-30k miles a year so let’s hear it. I always felt staying with the passenger tire on the Yukons also what was stamped on door. But then is stamped LT.

Interesting how different experiences can be. I've never had a set of Duratracs that didn't last me at least 50k miles and the Ridge Grapplers are not great in my experience - they are a nice weather tire - wet traction is mediocre and snow traction is non-existent. Wildpeaks are great in performance but way too heavy.

I like the Duratrac, Territory MT and Open Country AT3 and RT Trail. My recommendation for you would be the Territory MT in 275/70/18. A true 33 that fits your stock wheels and won't need a re-gear or re-calibration (though I recommend you re-calibrate if you can find a way). Also light and not too expensive.
 
Be sure to check the specs of any tire you consider, even in the same size they differ in dimensions from each manufacturer and product line.

I only have 5k on my Wildpeak AT4Ws so obviously they have been great. Like you, I wanted something for more pavement than not but good all around performance. When I was shopping the Falkens were middle of the road for weight in the size I wanted. I have been really happy with Toyos in the past but they are $100 more per tire and the heaviest in the sizes I was looking at so I’m trying the Falkens out this time.

That’s the size I plan on running and I’m most likely staying 18’s. Don’t know why this truck wasn’t factory with that spec. The only negatives I’ve seen so far in looking at the Territory MT was durability off-road. Seem to puncture more easily , however expected if you ask me as it’s lighter tire. Part of trade off.

Definitely aware of the specific fitment based on mfg.
