What's the best value on pickup tires?

Posted by Ultradog MN on April 28, 2010 at 15:12:17 from (71.34.14.225):

I've been eyeing my tires here lately. Got enough rubber to last the summer but I'll need some before winter.
Pickup is a Chev K2500HD. Tires on it now are OEM Bridgestone LT 245/75 R16 Load range E all season radial. They'll have 70K+ on them by fall.
I know that asking what's the best tire is a little like asking what's the best tractor. So what I'm looking for is the best bang for my buck.
I don't need any kind of super tires or monster mud and snow. I don't want some cheap things either that are worn out at 50K. Just need a good All Season set. If I knew what to look for I could start watching for sales. Maybe buy them now and mount them just before the snow flys.
If it matters, I carry a lot on the pickup. Have 1500 lbs of tools on it when it's empty. Weight goes up from there for work.
I value the expertise of the folks here. Would appreciate some opinions/advice.
Jerry
