Tires MICHELIN or NANKANG
Have them on my 2017 f150 got 66k out of the first set, probably could have gone another 75-7 k. Replaced them with another set.
I’m on my second set. First set lasted almost 60k miles and still had tread, but I decided to replace them because they weren’t doing as great in wet weather anymore. They’re the best tires I’ve ever run, and I used to be sponsored by Nitto. They’re quiet, great in the rain and under breaking, and last FOREVER.
I’m running these on my leveled f150, smooth as butter.
I run theses (Michelin) on my 16 Expedition 4x4. Love them. Amazing traction in wet and extremely comfortable. They wear like iron.
I have them on my 2021 Ram 1500. Bought at Costco and love them. Stock tires were dangerous in the rain. These are great in Michigans rain and snow. Quiet too.
I run them on my F150 and my wife's Yukon. The new M/S2 nearly ties with the Continentals in wet braking. They make great road tires and are more than adequate offroad too.
They’re amazing. I had 2 sets on my ‘16 F-150. I put larger Recon Grapplers on my '22 F-150 and they look cool to me, but ride like a stone wheel compared to the Defenders.
As unbiased as I can be, myself and my family run defenders on every vehicle we own, and latitude X-ice for winters.
After a lot of years of trying different things, the Michelins have been the best tires by far.
I used Michelin's second tier called "Uniroyal Tiger Paw Ice & Snow" and they were great for winter but poor in wet and dry pavement .
The best I've had are the Dunlop Direzza Star Specs (I and II) for summer. For winter ofcourse the Bridgestone Blizzak WS90s for the Michigan winters. I've had a set of Kumho Ecsta MX's and they weren't bad either, but the worst by far were the MICHELIN PRIMACY all-seasons. Noisy, tread lasted less than 20k miles and obviously it's unsafe to wait until 2/32" so not even replaceable under warranty (which claims 80k miles treadwear ....pfft). Never again.
