DEFINITELY get the Michelin Defender LTX:
The LTX are as quiet as car tires

The LTX Last the longest of any tire PERIOD

ALL aggressive tread tires are REALLY noisy, so noisy you can hear them on a truck next to you with your windows rolled up

Aggressive tires wander real bad after 15k miles

Aggressive tires because they wander will destroy your front end components and will make your front end loose. They are the WORST thing you could do to your truck


I've been using Michelin LTX on all my SUV's for the last 25 years, hands down there is NO BETTER tire for your truck! I'm a certified Alignment man, I know what I'm talking about.
Nittos are good to go. Better, in my opinion than Coopers. You will not get Michelin mileage out of Nittos but The Nittos have the more aggressive look, maybe better off road performance and less expensive.

The Terra Grappler or Recon Grappler will be similar to the Michelin AT2 (the Michelin All Terrain). Again, the Nittos are a little more aggressive, a little noisier, and will not last as long. However, I would expect to get the equivalent of the mileage warranty (65k miles for example) out of the Nittos.

Any thoughts on Nitto as a brand or tirebuyer as a service? I've used tirerack in the past. Been looking for replacements for my Tundra and have almost pulled the trigger on bridgestone and michellin but this price on Nitto is pretty attractive.

I've used tirebuyer several times, including warranty work, and they've been pleasant to deal with and quick to deliver. I initially did some research and found out their "parent" company is the largest tire distributor in the US.

Was able to get the local DiscountTire to match the price at $870 installed after tax. Would people be more inclined to pay more for Michelin or other big name for roughly $200 more after some rebates? I drive my pickup very rarely now that i've been working from home for the last 3 years and put very few miles on them. Might be a nice price point for a decent tire but am a bit concerned about the aggressive/loud ride comment @slickosaurus made above.

I could get these matched probably: https://www.tirebuyer.com/tires/m...V060001777 for $961 + $120 installed. ~$210 more.

The LTX is the only tire I have ever gotten the mileage warranty out of on a Toyota 4Runner. Crazy durable.

A friend of mine is a huge motorhead and he has had bad luck this past few sets of Michelin. Mentioned it to his mechanic and they said the rubber coming from overseas is not nearly as durable as they had been in the past. Had me worried a bit.

How did you approach DiscountTire about matching the price? Did you show them the cart on your phone with discount?

I have the Nitto 555rii drag radials and they are highly rated, right under the Mickey Thompson Street ET drag radial. I have the Nitto 555g2 on the front, as the match for the rears and they perform well on the front.

Every time I need tires, I have to review what all the various ratings mean. I have learned that a soft tire that gives superior traction (including on ice), will never last as long as a high mileage tire that has harder rubber.

Traction or mileage has been the trade off.

It all depends on where one lives, anticipated road conditions and a dealer you can trust for alignments and warranty when needed. For trucks, we have been using OEM Good Year Wrangler from Discount Tire that being a softer tire, give about 45,000 miles and all around decent traction; including ice. Sure, they may go further, but from my experience, when tread gets down to about 1/8", you get more flats. I usually sell the take offs for $100 as good enough for people selling or trading their truck... they are always gone in a day and saved the disposal fee.

Nitto (Toyo) is fine, but their lower end all terrain with a rating of A for traction (A is typical for passenger car) is not that great for off road, but decent on highway. Being a bit harder tire, traction on ice is a bit less than I want. What Nitto does have is a selection for specific usage that includes speed rated, various off road versions, etc.

For autos, I went with Continental Extreme's several years ago as good enough for OEM BMW and other European imports, they have been a quality speed rated tire with decent all season traction. I have ran Michelen Pilot's in 315's, but cannot keep them from cupping with standard alignment. Good Year Eagles dry rotted from the inside with still 70% of tread. They warranted them, but the 2nd set did same.

There are endless opinions, but if mostly on paved roads, the needs of someone living in south Texas or Florida are going to be different than someone that lives in Minnesota. If you travel on gravel roads, more aggressive tread tires are going to beat the hell out of the bottom and bottom sides of the vehicle. In the end, you have to decide and if the OEM were fine, I might stay with that design as we have done with the Wrangler. I bought the last sets in 20" for $500 on an eBay deal from Discount Tire and stored them until recently installed by Firestone for their lifetime balance, rotation and alignment for not much more than the standard rates.

Agree with the 555R II. Too bad my size is OOS (like everything else) and they don't let you backorder. I was going to pick up a spare pair.
