I am looking to purchase some new tires for my 2007 Dodge Ram 1500.

I was wondering if anyone out there had some recommendations on any good tires that I should get or should I just purchase the stock GOODYEAR HP tires that came on the truck. I had no problems with the Goodyears, and they seemed to wear pretty good(50,000 miles on them now). I am am just curious if there is anything better or what tires you guys like the best.

Thanks
Matthew

What size rim do you have and what kind of driving do you do? For me i need AT tires, and run Falkens (i have the 20s and they were cheaper and rated just as good as the Dueller AT revo 2s)
but if you just have the 17s i would reccomend the Bridgestone Dueller AT Revo IIs they are quiet have a very long tread life (i got 80K out of my last set) and awsome wet/snow traction as well as offroad if you do that.

I have the 20 inch rims and its alot of highway and around town driving, not much off road. Not much trailer towing either. I am trying to determine if an AT or HP is the best.

I believe you Live in RI?? i would go with an AT if you guys get any amount of snow... The HP tires just dont get around in it very well.

Correct with the RI. I will look into some A/T, How is the road noise for the Falkens?

I havent really heard any they are very quiet, ride smooth, and arent heavy (weight has proven to be an issue with tires since a 50lb tire can pull down your milage more than a 36lb tire). also in the snow they stick really well and it is a good thing since the ABS in my truck only kinda works.
I paid $178 a tire for them, compared to $230 or more for comperable ATs.
