Running 2013 6.7L 2500, stock everything except 2” Leveling kit and 1/2” wheel spacers. Currently have 35/12.5/18 Gladiator QR900 MTs. I’m looking to stay with the same size tire but try a different one...just wanting to solicit some opinions before I decide which to go with...considering...

Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx
Ironman All Country M/T
Radar Renegade A/T 5

Any other suggestions? I’m trying to stay around the $1200 and below. Online reviews seem to be pretty high for those three. I don’t do any off-roading so to speak...I’m the situational 4 wheeler...getting in and out of a hunting or fishing hole. Other than that I’m about 50/50 city/hwy driving.

My personal experience with the Cooper Discoverers was pretty poor. Uneven wear, constantly needed to be balanced and it wasn't due to the suspension. I replaced them with some Toyo Open Country AT's and the wear and balance problems went away.

No experience with the other two.

Good luck with your choice.

Didn’t realize this would be such a tuff decision...but considering spending $900-$1200...I want to make sure I don’t regret it a month later.

Anyone have any experience with Treadwright Tires? They’re ads are all over the forum site...so just curious

I've had good luck with coopers and currently running the STT pro. Probably more aggressive than what your looking for and they do have a hum to them but might be worth a look.

++++ on the wildpeak AT3, awesome looking tread design and I was amazed at how thick and strong the side walls were....

Really leaning towards the Radar Renegade R5s, R7s or Ironman All Country. The Falkens look nice, but are roughly $100 more per tire than these other options...and I really need new shoes, but am on a budget right now.

I just bought a used set of iron man all country mt to see if they fit my truck in a 35
Very nice tire
Since they fit I ordered a new one today for a spare $203 for a 35x12.5r18 seems like a good price
From what I can find they are partnered with Cooper
Only time will tell but there are a great looking tire
They do hum on the road but am curious to see what kind of mileage I can get out of them

I am really considering the Ironman’s...I can get all 4 bought/mounted and balanced for around $900. I’m either gonna go with those, or I just might put a new set of Gladiator QR900s like I have on there now.

I agree I wish I had more miles on mine to give you a review
I bought them for a test but they ended up having lots of tread left on them but the guy I got them from said they were on his truck when he bought it and he put about 10k miles on them his truck was a Cummins
They still have about quarter inch of tread or maybe a little more on them and look awesome on my truck
I feel like for 900 I'll get 4 new ones when they wear out and hopefully they last
They are a very aggressive looking tire and do make some noise
But for the price I think they may be hard to beat

SO...? New Russell Crowe’s or Tony Stark’s ???
