Heather check out tire rack! They do a pretty good job of comparing
different tires/brands based on customer feedback!

I want a 6ply tire, I want something that I'm not going to be purchasing new
tires in another year. I drive a LOT of highway miles and currently after a
year and 3 months have 36K miles on my truck. My father has these same
tires on his truck and has had them for 7 yrs. My father drives to Mexico
every day. I am not going to be going off road - or rarely >:)
I hate my Goodyear Invicta's...I really don't want to pay $600 for a set of
tires, but I want good quality and something that is going to last me more
than a year. If all of them are going to last me that long, then gimmie a
cheap tire :)

Heather, just curious, but are you looking for an all-terrain tire? It is
really your choice on what you get, it is your money. If you are looking for
an all-terrain tire, there are many more tires alot better than the LTX M/S
out there. I have pulled out alot of vehicles stuck in snow with these
tires, and they were even 4WD trucks/SUVs. Also, maybe it is just me, but my
jaw dropped when you said $154 each!!! I am on my 3rd complete set of tires,
and have never paid anywhere close to $600 for the set. My current Dunlop
Radial Rover RVs(LT235-75R15's), for a set of 4, lifetime balance, lifetime
rotation, lifetime valve stems, mounted up and balanced came to only $315. I
am not making you rethink your decision, just am curious what kind of tire
you are after. I just think Michelins are over-priced and very over-rated.
