I can't speak for truck tires specifically but I was impressed with Michelin Defenders last time I had a set. Fuel economy was only marginally worse than the l famous Bridgestone RE92 165 (probably the lowest RR passenger tire), they lasted twice as long, and weighed less. I felt the traction was "fine" in the 70,000 or so miles I had them, though undoubtedly they were using a very hard rubber compound.
