What did you have prior…. I have worn duratracs thinking of going fallen or maybe even these.Just had Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A\T put on all around. $1200 installed and balanced . 60K warranty $100 rebate. 16\32 tread depth and best tires I've ever owned.
I had no name street tire in other words junk!What did you have prior…. I have worn duratracs thinking of going fallen or maybe even these.
I'm currently running AT3+ XLT (E rated). I'll probably get 40k miles out of them, but at 35k they are getting noisy and a little choppy on the outside edges (I rotate every 5k and alignment is perfect).2017 RAM 1500 Laramie Longhorn 4wd Crew Cab
Cooper AT3 XLT 275/65R20, 5% increase in aspect ratio over stock.
On my 2nd set.
Pros: Improved cornering, excellent in the wet, low noise considering tread, look great.
Cons: Pricey
To offset the price, I change them out at 45K with 6-7/32" left and sell them.
Pays for one of the four new tires. Keep them on and you'll get 65K or so.

I stay away from Costco and Sams for tires. Sure, they have some good deals, but they only stick to OEM sizes and will argue with you until you are blue in the face. Discount Tire and Firestone have NEVER argued with me, no matter what size I run.I used to buy tires for years at Costco. Never again.
Why?
Had 2 bad experiences with them. The worst one-Installer cracked a magnesium rim.
The final straw was having a warranty issue, got no support. Manager gave me the Michelin 800 number to call. Said I had to prove tires were rotated every 5000 miles at Costco or he could not help me. Normal servicing at my shop did not count.
Anyone at Costco spent more time attempting to belittle me and talk around my issue rather than help. This treatment was not only to me but my 22 year old as well.
My goto shop figured out the cracked rim out in 2 seconds.
I never followed up the warranty issue.
Sorry Costco, a word never said to me, we’re done with your tires.
What size are you using and at what PSI? I have 20' wheels and run them between 45-50 PSI. My wear is even all the way across. I'm a bit surprised at your experience with the AT3 XLT's. I agree as they wear the noise level goes up.I'm currently running AT3+ XLT (E rated). I'll probably get 40k miles out of them, but at 35k they are getting noisy and a little choppy on the outside edges (I rotate every 5k and alignment is perfect).
Well yours seem to have a little more tread than mine at current. In addition to keeping them properly inflated and not spinning them, I also rotate them regularly. I don't haul a lot with my truck, but when I do, it is usually in a trailer...not sure if that makes a difference. As I mentioned, I run 17 Rebel wheels in the winter. Still on the original Toyo Open Country's. Not sure what I will go to when they wear out, but it will be a winter rated, heavy lug tire.That makes more sense. Still you're getting a lot more out of them than I did. Here's mine at 19K just before I sold the 3 remaining for $45.
Those things were tipsy while cornering:

Squire Rick: I just put a set of 295/70 NITTO (General)Grapplers on ‘19 Longhorn. Only put a few hundred miles on them, so far so good. More aggressive tread than I’ll probably ever need, but who knows.
