It is marked: "Non winter", in case that means anything to you. But Amazon's reviews are excellent. And $135 is pretty cheap. https://www.amazon.com/Hankook-Dynapro-Terrain-Radial-Tire-245/dp/B07MFHQ85B

Thanks, Pal. Yes they are all terrain, not a dedicated winter tire.

They are wearing well on my 94 f150 in 235/75/15 EL.

Caveat that those are P, not LT.

On that pickup, LTs. Too many gravel roads!

Have same question, In my case Have the 20" 113T Dynapro's on my Lariat 4wd I inherited from Dad. I gave up my older F150 which had LT tires. I am not missing the extra weight of my LT's - though LT's made me confident off road. I received comments that LT's are a bit much for standard F150. more for heavier duty trucks....not sure about that. I am OCD on tires and reviews are consistent about these wearing phenomenally well. Rears are just beginning to show some wear but still have a ways to go. I have used several model AT tires but none have had this much tread left at 40k. My current lease isn't full of mesquite thorns which used to tear up prior P tires on my old truck. Still have the gravel roads though. Going to give these a long ride before deciding. If I have to haul my camper trailer I am confident I can do them with what I got since I won't be going very far. Am getting better mileage with a more powerful engine and liking it.

If they aren't dedicated winter tires, they'll be made of harder rubber for longer tread life. In that case, they won't have the traction on snow and Ice of a real snow tire. You have to decide which you want - tread life or traction. For me, a snow tire means studs.

I have a set the same size on an 88 4Runner....
They have been on that truck for 77, 000 miles so far... they still have a fair amount of tread left on them still....
Different size, but same tire, on the rear axle...on a 2006 Honda Pilot.. they still had decent tread left on them, but when I removed them, and replaced them with the same tires....the first set had 115,000 on them, and are mounted on rims and waiting to be used as spare tires.

My mechanic Mike just gifted me a set of 40%-50% remaining of this exact tire in 265/70/R16.
Looks to be a very good tire...
Rocks and cuts are my biggest problem in WV... I almost never wear out a tire on tread use...
