Is there an official policy for a date limit not to sell a new tire past? I drive my truck about 3000-6000 miles a year to haul dirt bikes to the track or pull trailers when needed. I use my wife's car the rest of the time. I replaced the 35s that the used truck came with that were worn out with the most expensive tires in my size. (Not because they were the most expensive, they just had an F load rating I wanted). My tires came out and they are over 3 years old. After about $1800 for new tires and someone who will likely age them out, would I be out of line to ask for newer ones? What are the odds that a new order has a newer date code?. These were online order shipped to store for im guessing, a not very popular tire. It was a BFG HD Terrain if that matters.

Bought my power wagon used in January. I knew the tires it came with were about shot and yesterday i realized they are load range C as i aired them up to pull a heavy trailer. I want load range E tires as i tow a heavy 14k trailer occasionally (i have airlifter springs)

I do not daily drive the truck. I only use it to tow trailers of dirtbikes, ATV, Boats Campers. Additionally I will flat tow the PW behind my motorhome to get us to the trailheads. I dont rockcrawl or anything with it, but i do find myself on muddy trails and forest roads, so want some grip. Snow doesnt really matter as i live in Florida and dont plan on any snow travel.

Im a costco member and see they basically only sell BFG tires for my sizes. Looks like Discount tire is same prices. I have seen some mixed reviews on BFG in the past, but KO3 and HD terrain are new. I do like that they have a Load Range F. I have also heard the NITTOs last a long time from a fellow Power Wagon owner i met out in public. Just wanted to see what you all think or if there is another tire that will fit the bill without wasting money.

BFG All Terrain T/A KO3 $387

BFG HD Terrain T/A KT $419

NITTO Ridge Grappler $382
