I need a new set and would like to hear pros and cons on the different brands.

The oe Michelin tires on my CTD went about 80K. Replacements were not cheap but if I get another 80K out of them I will be happy!

I have a 03 2500 ctd that has 89,000 it has the orig BFGs on it. Still has lots of tread but the sidewalls are starting to breakdown.

I got 80K miles from a set of Michelins on my 3/4 ton Suburban. The last one actually almost made it to 100K.

BFG is either good or real bad. My wife's car got 17K out of a BFG set that were guaranteed for 70K. Best part of that is she got enough warranty bucks to pay for about half the cost of the new set of Michelins.

I'm lucky to get 30K out of my trucks tires. We must have different driving styles.

Is it a mall cruiser or an actual work truck?

Hard as a rock daily driver tires will last forever. Tires that get used to tow, haul, and otherwise work will not last nearly as long.
