My used Ram came with these on them, great tires in all weather. You really have to shop around for them though as I've seen them from $290-$490 per tire. https://www.nittotire.com/light-truc...ht-truck-tire/

Has too much time on their hands
I can;t say one brand has been better for me than the others. I wear what ever my trucks and cars come with and I never had any issue and we see quite a bit of snow in Muskoak.

I got a set for 19" rims, forgot the make, but anyhow didn't drive them long enough to comment on performance. We traded the car with only 10000 km on those tires.
They were all weather rated (had the snowflake), and I know I got them for a good price ... I think $180 per tire.
Not sure where you are ... place I get good prices at is JAM Rimz ... they are in Mississauga ... (647) 739-1190.

I didn't pay attention to the fact that the OP needs tires for a 20" wheel. That might make it impossible to get decent tires (new) for less than $1K
The load rating is directly related to the number of plys the tire is made out of, and the number of plies determines sidewall stiffness, which prevents sidewall punctures. C = 6 ply. D = 8 ply. E = 10 ply. I've seen enough sidewall punctures ( and wranglers are the worst tire for it) to be aware its a problem and it's not covered by too many warrantys. The KO2's I've got are covered for *anything* - if it won't hold air - it gets replaced - but for that price, they should nearly give you a couple of replacement tires up front.

I put BF Goodrich KO2's on my Silverado 20". 1600 installed including tax. They don't seem to ever go on sale - anywhere.
if you're not going offroad - I have a set of continental summer tires 20" from my Silverado that are for sale 10k on them - cheap.
They were on the truck when I bought it and they are no good for winter or off-road.
I have the K02's on my Suburban, I got stuck wheeling and my buddy with Goodyear Duratracks pulled me out.

I have a RAM 1500, had the B.F. Goodrich KO2's on for 2 years or so, they were OK but nothing special. Recently got a set of General Grabber AT2's, and I like them better than the KO2's. With the recent storm we had I was driving around those boys in the 4wd clubs all stuck on the side roads with no problem.

We got to try to keep it well under 1000 with tax.
Already bought a Canoe rack for the truck and well I missed the sale for the ATV ramp, I thought it ended on the Thursday, it ended on the Wednesday, luckily I have 200 Canadian Tire money. I still need to buy metal to build a locking device like Kolpin has for locking the ATV in the back of the truck.
The max weight I will probably being towing most times is about 5-6 face cords (5000 pounds) although a buddy of mine does use it to pull hi 9000 pound sail boat.
So yeah I need to keep the tires under 1000.

20” is a expensive size. In the bush most guys go with the Duratrac, darn good tire. The Goodyear adventure or General grabber might be a good option for you. Start calling tire shops, you would be surprised the “take off” they have for sale at discount pricing. Good Luck

Yeah I know the 20 inch tires are expensive and of course I had to pick the truck with the 20 inch tire.
I was also looking at the Cooper Discovery tires but a friend was telling me they tried them on their fleet of trucks and once they were have done they were useless.
There are also a brand called Linglon from China but I can't find much about them.
I have Wranglers for my old Jimmy and they were nice but I bought them used with 1000 km's on them new they are quite expensive.
I do like the Grabbers they are nice. If I wait until fall to replace the tires I could probably go higher on my price.

I've been putting used tires (265/75/16) from Kijiji on my trucks for many years. I usually pay $400-$500 for a set of 4 on rims balanced.
