I look at the letter on the tire size that lets u know what there used for rite now I have p for passengers I was using lt tires light truck those lasted forever u can feel the difference though passenger tires seem to be quieter u can't even hear them. I've been running kumho tires... I had a short nail in one the other day my tire was jumping up and down I was like wtf pulled over the nail wasnt going through the chords thats how tough they are didn't get a flat never have got these on 2 cars little expensive tho.
 






I have been using Cooper tires on all our vehicles for several years. This goes for my Mountaineer down to my Steeda Mustang and everything in between. I have no complaints with this brand so far.
 






General Grabbers Light Truck/SUV have always worked well for my vehicles. Long tread life, good traction and prices are reasonable, IMHO.

I agree. I do a lot of research before buying tires & kept coming back to the general grabber hts60’s. I purchased them last winter & love them. Much better in the foul weather than the Goodyear assurance triple treads that I bought the truck with. From the price stand point your really not going to get anything better
