I've priced them out at around $1200(set of 4)!! and I can't imagine getting 40k miles out of these tires. Does anyone know of another tire manufacturer that makes this size and is worth the money? I appreciate all the help.

If your experiencing fast wear on ATKO's, then it's your pressure, alignment, or general driving habits. The ATKO with regular rotation and attention to pressure is an easy 50k tire. I have those on my F150 with 25k on them an they are easily at 80% remaining tread. Keep in mind these tires need more pressure in them. If you are running them in the low/mid 30 psi range that's part of the issue. No affiliation at all to BFG other than a satisfied customer. They'll be on my Tundra when the time comes.
