Tires for Tow Vehicle

[larryseals]

Time to buy tires for my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 SLT that I use primarily to tow my 30' Travel trailer.  Thinking of buying Bridgestone Duravis R500 HD tires to replace the OEM Michelins.  Anyone else using this commercial tire on a 2500 tow vehicle?  Advantages/disadvantages?  Recommendations?

I have them as OEM on my Sierra 2500. I like them. They are just "ok" in the snow but have performed well in all other conditions. They are quiet but they do ride like a heavy truck tire, especially when aired up for towing. I have about 33k miles on the truck right now and the tread is still plenty deep. I am already considering sticking with them come replacement time.

Thanks Joe!

I like the GY Wrangler Silent Armor tires.  Not the cheapest but I like their aggresive tread design, good for getting out of that grassy camp site after a night of rain.  Got 35K on a set now and still plenty of tread.  A bonus, there are good on ice too.
