Heather,
When I was looking, I had narrowed it down to these and the BF Goodrich A/T
KO! I had heard so many positive responses from people on the list, I went
with the BFG's! Only problem is Tir Rack nor alot of other mail order shops
won't carry them because BFG has set the price and don't allow their dealers
to dicker! Therefore no matter where you go you pay the same price, or BFG
won't send the dealer anymore!
Anyway, I don't think you can go wrong with the Pirelli's. I've had great
luck with them on mine and my families passenger vehicles! (The BFG's
31x10.5x15s ran $99.00 a piece not including mounting and balance)

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.
