I got a Power Boost , 6.5' bed, 4x4. It was supposed to come with all terrain tires. What I got were Michelin Primacy XC 275/65R18 116T tires. On Tire Rack, they are called all season tires, and they were panned by all the consumers. It hasn't been tested by Tire Rack.

Anyone here have these tires? Would you describe them as good, bad, or ugly? As soon as the truck is broken in, I will be pulling a 24.5' long, GVWR 6000# TT.

Has anyone towed with these tires?

I have them on my 21 XLT 4x4
I currently have no issues with them at all.
They are quiet and not rough riding
However, I am in south texas so inclimate weather or bad roads are not an issue.
Pretty sure they would not do well in my sandy back yard, but I have the old truck with lockers front and rear and tires to get me thru and back out.

I haven't changed the tires yet. They are doing fine so far. Biggest problem are the shocks. They are way to soft for my liking. I plan on adding a set of Bilstien 4600 shocks.
