I am running Micky Thompson Baja Boss M/T 35X12.5X17. Drove from Gainesville to Pensacola in the rain on I75 and I10. Tire provided solid performance and noise level is low IMO. Have them on a Power Wagon and they are Load Range D but rated at 3000 lbs. per tire. I don't have more than a few thousand miles on them but so far the wear is even just can't tell you how many miles I will get out of them. With the weight of my camper and gear I see no squat at recommended pressure. They are not cheap but neither was the Power wagon

classic ramforum.ask about 3 specific tires,get every tire under the sun thrown at you.
Who cares if we all threw our choices ... OP didn't state he only wanted to discuss those 3 tires did he? As a matter of fact he engaged in the discussion about the other tires did he not? If you don't like the thread don't participate in it ....

I’m running Firestone Transforce AT , LT 285/60R20s on my 2018 Laramie 2500. I live up here in RI, dealing with the snow, sleet , ice & rain? I like them, they give a nice and quiet ride too! Had the Michelins LTX on it before? Which gave a hum while driving? Good Luck deciding with your choices?

I've got the Geolanders. They perform well on road/highway/snow/braking and are quiet. Got 30k on my self, don't look new but should last 60k since i rotate them religiously. No problems at all with the set so far.

We Installed Toyo MTs on my dads 2015 2500 Cummins. They pulled right pretty hard, due to the pitch of the road. They look great but are hard to balance. Always had some kind of balance/vibration issue. We found 1 good shop that could balance them correctly.

My dad told me if he could do it over he would do a beefy AT instead of the MT. Got a good 40k out of them daily driving.

ok not what the OP asked but Toyo RT's are pretty good at everything the op wants and looks decent as well.

That is weird, the Toyo MTs are actually very easy to balance, the best MTs to balance actually when I was busting tires and that was back in 2006 and now I never hear anyone around here saying they have problems balancing them ...

I’ve run BFG, km1-3 for 22 years on a 2001 2011 2020. They are hard to balance, but not impossible, they work great in all weather conditions. The best I’ve got on any of the tires is the latest Km3’s. Now I was running all the previous versions in Cali and Arizona. These tires are running in Mississippi. I’ve never had any other tire on my truck or Jeep. They are made in America and Discount tire always takes care of me. Thuren and Carli don’t like them, not sure if they’ve run the newest version because of past experience. I had to have my present set balanced 3 times right off the bat. After about 2500-3000 miles they have been trouble free as far as keeping balanced. These tires have 23,000 miles at present. 4271C6F3-2186-4838-9FD9-2C1449589615.jpeg

Hey Chris I have had excellent luck with Firestone Mt2 and Cooper STT pro both made in USA. Rotate every other oil change and last over 50k
Yokohama is made in Mississippi.. great tire!! It’s between the Yokohama G003 and the Toyo MT now.. I think the toyos might be a touch louder

I Had Geolander G003's on my 2018 Powerwagon pictured. They were great tires, got kinda loud as they wore down, idc about the noise. I just traded for a 2019 PW, and got a set of Hankook Dynapro MT 2's. they balanced good, they look great, and not loud at all so far. The price of G003's is way up, so I went with the Hankooks. they were more in my current price range.

The General Grabber X3 are by far the best tire I've ever owned. They are not loud, definitely quieter than the mastercraft courser MXT's that I had on my 2500. I am at 13k on them right now, I am at 14.5/32 which puts me at 36,000 miles when I reach 3/32. If I get 30k out of a set of tires on my truck I will throw a parade... I will say the baja boss m/t was right up there but the red letters drew me in.

Thanks Chap, It is a power wagon thing, yours is great as well. Wish I had the money to park a 1946 to 1950 P/W right beside Big red but I keep buying the wrong LOTTO tickets
