At 3500 miles, my front tires measured 1/32 worn, which is on par with the expected 45,000 mile life of the tires. The rears are, well, about 3.5 worn down, on par with a 13,000 mile lifespan. I guess the "Good(-for-a-)year" brand lives up to its name. Or maybe I should stop "testing" the torque on the 6.7... as often... as once every 5 minutes...

How is everyone else doing with the stock tires?
 
I’m only at 2900 miles but I towed my 10k trailer a round trip of 500 miles and at the end of my trip, my rear tire tread was noticeably lower than the fronts. So I needed a tire rotation after one towing trip....
 
On my '21 F250 Tremor, I have just short of 25,000 miles (original factory Goodyear tires), I have not rotated the tires and the pressure is still 60psi front and 80psi rear. I have noticed that my rears have about half the amount of tread left as the front do. I have not measured the tread depth, but this will make me have to replace them by 30,000 miles at best.
On my '11 F250 I have been running the same Goodyear Wrangler Dura-Trac tires 295/65-18 since I bought the truck new and I get between 50-60,000 miles on a set. I keep them at about 50psi and rotate them about every 10,000 miles.
I am going to rotate them this weekend for shits and giggles, but I'm figuring that it must be the massive psi difference between the front and rear.
I want to change the Tremor to 325/65-18 and stick with the Goodyear Dura-Trac's because, up until now I have had great luck with them.
I also want to reduce the TPMS settings so I can run softer...maybe around 50psi like my '11.
I have FORSCAN on my laptop, but have not actually tried to make any changes yet.
Anyone have any thoughts on that????

Why in the world would you not rotate your tires in 25K miles?
 
I have 7900 miles and without measuring seems to be very little wear. On my previous truck I rotated tires at 5000 miles along with oil changes.
I suppose my question is do you rotate at 10,000 miles with oil change on a diesel or in between?

I usually rotate them every 10,000 miles but since I want to change them anyway I wanted to see if there would be a difference due to the 20psi difference front to back.
 
that makes sense especially if your wanting to change tires. What tire do you want to go to?

I want 325/65-18 or 35x12.5-18. Was planning to stick with the Goodyear Wrangler Dura-Trac, but now I'm not sure.
 
I have always ran BF Goodrich KO2 s, as I have on my Rubicon now.
I asked because I don’t really know for this truck and towing if it’s the smartest tire. My mileage is excellent right out of the showroom from Oregon to Vegas 19mpg doing 85-90 and toping out at 92.
I LOVE THIS TRUCK!
