Load Range E tires

Whats everyone running on there 3/4 tons for tires? I'm been shopping around this week and I'm leaning towards the BF Goodrich Commercial T/A,s. I can get them for around $120 each locally. Anybody have any experience with them?

The Uniroyals Laredo's that were on it held up great but they were a little slick in the rain.

Re: Load Range E tires

I'm running them on my ramp truck. They seem to be a good tire. I paid $105 ea for m8 235/85 -16's about 2 years ago, so $120 doesn't sound bad considering the price hike in tires over the last few years.

Re: Load Range E tires

I've had them before. OK for pavement use. Not worth a darn on anything else. My Bridgstones are about the same. Smooth & quiet- but gets stuck on wet grass easily- even with a posi.
