I have to get another set of tires for my f-150 after only 25,000 miles on the wild cats I bought.

I'm looking for a reasonable priced tire that can get close to 50,000.

Toyo A/T. I have consistently gotten 60k+ miles on each set. I am at 53k on my current set and should make it through winter.
My truck is a 7,000 lb. 2500HD crew cab with Duramax and has 155,000 miles. I removed the stock rims and tires and used them on a work truck and purchased a set of Coopers when the truck was new. I didn't make it to 35k with them. I believe Wildcats are the same or very similar to Cooper. I switched to Toyo and am on the tail end of the second set. That includes a large amount of towing 8-10k trailers and off highway use.

BM,

I've got a set of schwab SXT's on my diesel super duty, 56K so far, and will get me until next summer. Quite impressed with them, especially when they cost half what the toyo AT's cost at the time. They've gone up over $100 each since then however... grrr $1200 for 4 *cheapie* tires

cool, thanks guys.

I forked out around $900 I believe for the wildcats, already have had 2 flats, last one punched a 1/2 diameter baseball size rock through the tread! they are also worn down pretty badly. I drive mostly highway but drive a fair amount of gravel/dirt roads as well (fishing, hunting, woodcutting, hell raising, etc.)

I'm willing to fork out more bread if they will last a lot longer...

Tire must a learned it from you Stam-----always actin like a kid!

Cooper Zeon LTZ's is what I've been running. Ran them hard on logging roads without an issue. I've got 20,000 miles and they're still at 50% on my Dodge 1500...

I'm done with the Toyo's, awesome tire but just too much money...

Coopers one Great tire for the money!

Run Toyo A/T on both my trucks, have been very happy with them traction and longevity wise. Second set on my F-150 third set on my Ranger. Been getting between 45k and 60k on them.

I just put some Coopers on my truck. Same chassis as NoWarrenty. We'll see how they work in 35K miles.

I have Cooper S/T Discoverer's on my F-150. Second set of these. First set got 60,000 miles. These are the heavier duty version with more aggressive tread. A bit louder, but no issues traction wise.

Depends on the vehicle and how heavy of a foot you have: ATs are the way to go, now matter where you live.

Longest life tire I've ever seen in my life: BFG AT with the squiggly pattern. They aren't cheap.

Toyo makes a good tire -- never owned them.

Dean and Cooper -- expect 40-60k out of them. Decent tire for the price. My work rigs use them. Good in snow and ice.

From their website.

The Discoverer S/T is Cooper's premium all-purpose SUV/light truck traction tire that is a hybrid of three designs — all-terrain, high void and commercial traction. The Discoverer S/T fits a wide range of SUVs and light trucks up to 1 ton, but it is especially suitable for high-powered, high-torque light trucks where optimum wear and traction are required.

Real happy with the michelins on my Suburban. 14 years old and they are shot but mostly weathered from just sittng the last few years. Easy 75,000 good miles. The factory ford crap on my 3/4 truck really sucks.

I finally changed out two of the tires on my 2008 F150.92,000 miles on the OE Michelins.I put some studded mud and snows on the rear and moved the other two to the front.I'll replace the other Michelins this spring.They will be over 100,000 miles then.

BF Goodrich TA KO got 65,000+ out of my last set running them on a 2500 dodge diesel. My buddy got the same. Just put on my 2nd set.

Get the $60 dollars off a set of BF Goodwrench tires that costco runs from time to time and go to them and get a set of the TA KO.

I'd say BFG's or Goodyears if you have the scratch, Toyo's if not.

Schwab's "Open/Wild Country" tires vibrate, won't keep balance, make a lot of road noise and wear out fast.

Stay the hell away from anything Firestone.

I had a pair of good year wanglers on my old ranger. those things lasted forever! wondering if they make them for full size trucks?

where can you find cooper's?
