I have an '02 Ford 7.3L Super Duty Truck. 80% highway driving-20% pulling 24' alumn. livestock trailer. Want a tire that will last, be smooth on Hwy. and do it's duty. I do rotate my tires reg. and keep the pressure accurate. Tell me what out there. Thanks in advance, Trisha

Look into a Nitto Dura Grappler. They're supposedly a VERY long lasting highway tread type tire. They also come in Load Range E, which would be what you need with your trailer.

the bridgestone dueler revos are an AWESOME tire, BUT............they wear out like pencil erasers. thetirerack.com has some really good specials, i will be getting some tires very soon through them.

I got a set of the Nitto Dura Grappler Highway Terrain tires. Great traction, smooth ride, and no noise on the highway. I have around 15,000 miles on them and they are down to about 40% tread left. Don't think I will make it to the 40,000 miles they advertise, but other than that that, I am happy with them.

I have the NItto's on my truck and I do nothing but put highway miles on them. They have 25k miles on them and the tread still looks like it did the day I bought them.

The BFG's were the best tires I have had on my truck.
I average around 48,000 miles on mine with about 80% interstate miles while pulling a 3ft. 2 car carrier trailer.
My NITTO's only lasted for 18,000, never again for me.
