thinking of biting THAT bullet.
they'll be on a 4 door Chevy 2500 that pulls an 8k pound 5th wheel monthly and 3000 lbs of hay monthly
I have 2 buddies that REALLY like them and say they ride great and last a long time
I have never owned Michelins but know they have a good reputation
thanx folks!

I run them on my Tunda and have for several years. I consider them more of a highway tire than an all terrain. There are not that great in snow or mid west mud IMO but they ride great, are quiet and they last well if you keep them rotated. But the towing and hauling I do is not the same as you do.
