Not happy with longevity of BFG KO2 tires. Looking for alternatives in a 10 ply that work well on trails, but don't wear so fast.

I’m running Duratracks and will not buy another set. They do great traction wise on the pavement, wet, dry or snowy and on forest service and logging roads. That said, not happy with the sidewall durability. Next set of tires are going to be Cooper ST Maxx or STT Pro.

I'm about 5k miles in on the new Cooper AT3 XLT on my Land Cruiser. Hands down best tire I've ever driven in the snow, been great on dirt roads, extremely quiet for an aggressive tread tire. Zero complaints from me so far. The 60k treadwear warranty helps too.

Those coopers are much better than the KOs off road. They do good in snow, mud, or sand. I dont know how they compare for tread life because I havent had each tire on the same truck in the same conditions for the full tire life.

On current truck have run the Nitto Mud Grapplers, the Cooper STT Pro's and now the Toyo Open Country RT (all in 35ish) and they have all performed well off road, Nitto only got 17K miles, Coopers got I think 22K, Toyos will probably run longest but still not hit wear guarantee. Overall I liked the Coopers the best on this truck (RAM 3500 Crew) and the Duratracs on previous Dmax were great but I like sticking with factory wheels....

Bottom line is the Coopers seem to get great reviews on half tons and smaller but when you get into the 2500/3500 they eat all of them alive in short time.

Cooper st maxx. Have about 45 thousand miles on this set and have another ten thousand left I would guess. My next set is already downstairs waiting for this set to wear out. Couldn't pass up the deal I got on em . Really have been good tires. Couple buddies have bought them as well and have been very happy.

I recently put Mastercraft Courser ATX they are a 10 ply. They are made by Cooper. In same factory. A little cheaper also. I bought them on Amazon and saved about $150 after mounting and balance. So far they are good.

My nitto ridge grapplers 35x12.50x18's have 30,000 miles with another 20000 +/- left on them. They have been my favorite tire so far.

Another vote for the Cooper ST Maxx. They are relatively quiet and seem to do well in most conditions, except packed snow.

I love my Cooper Discoverer ATW's. Hands down best tires I have used in snow. Good ride and relatively quiet for an AT tire on the highway.

I am running 235/85-16's on a Tacoma double cab.

I experienced rapid tread wear on bfg's too. I switched over to hankook dynapro LTs on my 1 ton and can't believe how much better they wear. I don't push my big truck hard enough off road to notice a difference in traction but there's no comparison in tread life, in my experience.
