Need to replace tires on my F150. Any recommendations? Would like to only run 1 set of tires if possible so looking mostly for good road performance and 3Peaks snow rating. Don't do too mcuh offroading other than the occasional camping trip to Moab driving on service roads.
Truck is a Ford F150 XLT FX with 22" inch rims.
i run wildpeak at3ws. quieter and way better in rain and snow than KO2s.
Nokian Outpost nAT / End Thread Very similar to the Falken AT3Ws I had on previously in snow and winter conditions, they are great off-road, and best of all - they are way quieter than the Falkens I had on previously. Crazy quiet honestly for an AT tire considering how well they do in snow and offroad.
The new KO[emoji639]’s are soooo much better than the ko[emoji638].
Also, search function jong!
That much better? Care to summarize? I’m out of the loop but gonna need some E rated tires soon.Quote:

I've been running Toyo Open Country A/T III on my F-150 the past few years as a do-it-all and I've been pretty happy. Not too loud. I split time between living in low elevation suburbia and the mountains where we get a lot of snow, so lots of highway driving involved.</p>
There's about a zillion tire threads here already. Nothing special about a F150 for tire selection.
Those 22" wheels mean you're gonna pay a shit ton for any tire you choose.
This, the outpost's are great. Run them on my 2020 F150 Limited.Quote:

Consider swapping those rollers for something in R18-20 range.
Was looking at Outpost but couldn't get them quick enough in my size

Thanks for the tips so far. And yeah, I've been thinking of swapping out the 22" rims. The truck is new to me and the rims came with...
2007 and you didn't know there were 37 tire threads? Gtfo
Get rid of the 22" rims to begin with and get 18's. KO3s or KO2's should be fine.
I have been very happy with my K03 this year. They are on my 2500 Ram.
I’d say the ko[emoji639]’s are quieter and much smoother. Better traction, I live on a steep hill and barely had to use [emoji640]wd to get home, with my ko[emoji638]s I had to use [emoji640]wd almost every time after the first winter. Other than that they look almost identicalQuote:

Do you really want KO2/3 or similar if the most off roading you are doing is FS roads? Is there not something more road oriented that would be a better compromise?
Yes, check out the other truck tire threads where this topic has already been discussed ad nauseum. This one is at 70 pages already.https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...44#post7203044
Ko3 are bad ass. Way better than ko2. But if you don’t need that much lug there are better quieter options.
I don’t. Just need to trust it in snow, good on pavement , and competent on service roads. Truck currently has general grabbers arctic LT but have slid out on them. Work ok when fourWD engaged and couple hundred lbs of sand in back but kind of sketchy when in twoWD.

The red ones.
The ones recommended in the other thread with years of history. Fucking delete this
22 inch wheels, yikes. If you dont off road, tow, or haul heavy loads, I think an E rated tire like the KO2 and KO3 are overkill. I also put Nokian Outpost nAT on my truck and had the Falken AT3Ws, which are now hard to find with the new AT4W, which are a different animal.
A search for Truck Tires leads to the 70 page thread devoted to this topic. Continue the discussion there so we dont have to repeat ourselves.
Seriously…. The site is on its deathbed, we’re in the middle of a spring heatwave, skiing is marginal and some of you are bitching about repeating yourselves… here’s a thought- don’t click on the thread. Super easy to ignore.

We ignore threads all the time. This has nothing to do with that. By steering you to the goldmine info thread we help you get the full answer you seek but also it allows you to pay it forward for the next guy with your question.
