Check out the Cooper STs. I've got them on my dually and have been very happy with them. I'm near Calgary Alberta so they lots of snow and ice in the winter and heavy hauling on dirt/gravel in the summer. Works great for all that but get plugged up pretty quick in the mud.

Great wear life too! One year later and still look new.

I liked my BFG's but I bought them too wide for my rims and they gave me fits with balance and death wobble. They were good in snow. Even the deep stuff we get in Northern WI.

Firestone Transforce HT here and I've been real happy with them. Of course they are not a all season tire but they have good traction in the rain and snow. I think that Firestone also makes the transforce in a more agressive pattern aka all season. HTH

tires

i'm sold on the oem's bfg's that came on my 04 and 05 dodge 2500's. I've gotten 65K miles and still had some tread. tire rack.com has them at a reasonable price. They do great in the snow and on the dry pavement. I put 285-75 16 Kumo's on my sons 2002 2500 dodge and they are wearing horribly! they look great filling up the wheel wells, but the wear is unacceptable. johnny walker boulder co

I run the Goodyear Dura Tracs 265/75/17 E load range. They work great so far. 10K miles and counting.
