I have a Toyota Pre-Runner SR5. I have Bridgestone Street/off road tires now. I would like to get just street tires now. My 50,000 miles is about out on these tires. I pull an 8x10 trailer everyday.
Anyone have suggestions on brands or tread design?

Not sure which brand I'd use, but for design I would go with something sparkly.

I have a 96 4Runner Limited 4x4 and I did the research almost two years ago and this was the best light truck tire going... www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Michelin&tireModel=LTX+M%2FS
Find em online and get the place you buy them to price match. I have been very happy with these tires.

Toyo Proxies...I put them on a 2wd Expedition and they were by far the best tires I ever owned.
Be patient with them because I didn't like them the first 1K miles they break in and are awesome tires.

Believe it or not, I have gotten over 50K miles on both, those Liberators ( Uniroyal, I think)_ from Walmart and Generals, when I can find them. Prefer the Generals.
I hate buying tires. Just make sure they have a high treadwear number, whatever you buy.

do you have them on a 3/4 ton? i went through three sets on my 2500HD. you pretty much have to rotate them every oil change.
