Tire wear question

So I'm looking at getting new tires for the Titan and I was ready to get a set of Revos but someone at work said they were a pretty soft tire so I'm not sure I'll get a lot of miles on them. I don't take the Titan offroad but I do some part time landscaping so I usually have a good bit of weight in the bed. Can someone recommend a tire that'll wear a little better than the stock ones?

Thanks,
Erik

Erik,

Honeykeeper's got Revo's and said he's rotating them at 3,000 miles...

I have BFG AT/KO's. Darn near bulletproof tires with strong side walls-wear long. Highly recommend them.

Re: Tire wear question

BFG AT/KOs- tried & tested-hands down the best compromise between on-road and off-road traction and wear.

Re: Tire wear question

What's the difference in price though? Do a ration of the price divided by the wear you'll get on each tire and see how that changes things. I haven't done it, but I'm curious.
