My 2018 3500 SRW came with Firestone Transforce AT2 WL tires. I like them very much. The fronts have 75K on them. I ruined the RR at 30K so the two rear were replaced and the tires have only been rotated side to side since. I thought with the 3250# pin wgt they would be worn out at about the same time as the front. I believe they will get 60K with no problem though.
My truck weighs around 8100# with toolbox and Companion hitch. Steering axle 4520# and drive axle 3540# the last time I weighed it empty. With the fiver, steering axle 4580# and drive axle around 6780#.
The fronts would have gotten 80K but the LF has a slight amount of edge wear so I am looking to replace them now. They are nearly 7 years old anyway.
I like this tire mainly because of the beefy outside rib. I think that has given the fronts the extra life. The old timers around may remember that Firestone designed the Transforce for the problems with tire wear on Twin I beam Fords.
There are a bunch of Firestone company owned stores and also a ton of dealers nationwide. In a 40 mile radius, I have one Costco and several dozen Firestones. IMO roadhazard warranty convenience is only as good as your location. As long as I travel, I doubt I will ever stray from Goodyear and Firestone.
