Hankook dynapro ht rh12 tires?

I need new sneaks on my 04 2X4 3500 diesel Ram. I'm looking at these Hankook tires. They got good reviews and are way cheaper than the Michelins I've had three sets of. I get 50k miles out of the Michelins BTW. I need basic Highway tires, no 4wd. Anyone have these?
Thanks

My dad is running the dura grapplers on his 96ctd. Loves them. I put a set on the wife's explorer. They're great. If they were available in 35 12.50r17 I'd get them for mine

I actually came here today to get up to speed on tires as I need new shoes as well. Currently, Betsy is sitting on Hankook RM10 and they have worn very well giving me 38k. I know that doesn't seam like a lot of miles but take into consideration I drive a tuned truck and the go pedal has a drinking problem.... With that said, it's only slightly better mileage then the prior Nittos and Toyos they followed. I did like the stability of this tire way better then those other two. Generally a solid thumbs up for the RM10.

I've tried Michelin, BFG, Transforce and Dura Grapplers.
The Duras have been the best by far for longevity and performance followed by the Transforce.

They have a newer cross between the Dura and Terra grappler.
They nor the Terras give the durability that come with the Duras.

I think I'm pretty set on the dynapro. They have a good Highway tread pattern and I'm never off road. I now have to decide if going taller makes sense. I made the mistake of opening this can of worms while searching so I have to get educated about the taller tire pros/cons

Not sure how you're going to get taller with the RH12 since 265/70/17 is the largest E rated tire in that family.

Thanks. I didn't know that but I'm not going to go with bigger tires. I decided it isn't worth changing.
