After completing 24,000 miles in my 2017 Denali, I noticed that the inside edge on the fronts has worn badly - the driver's side more than the passenger.

So I need to get some new rubber and wheel alignment.

It seems reading here that the Bridgestones are pretty unpopular. Mine was fitted with P285/45R22 110H M&S Bridgestone Dueler.

I need recommendations from you guys, preferably from those of you who live in the hot and sandy parts of the world. I do mostly highway driving on smooth dry hot tarmac and a little hard sand. I never drive in snow, mud or go on rough off-road - well the Denali doesn't have the clearances.

That said the Abu Dhabi Police are very keen on installing "speed humps" to slow us down, these are everywhere and vary greatly in height, angle of attack and depth. So some you can take pretty fast 30mph with no more than a minor rattle inside the cab, others will launch you off the ground or toss the contents of your luggage space in the air at 5mph, others will feel like you've just hit a 6" kerbstone. You get to know which and where the "speed humps" are and drive accordingly.

So what do you guys recommend to replace the Bridgestones?
TIA

I went with Nittos 421Q in that size and I’m very pleased with them. They also have a good warranty 70k I believe

I advise not to go with oem. 1st off they are usually expensive. 2nd oem tires don’t last as long. They are usually a soft compound that give a nice plushly feel and keep road noise down when they are new. Softer compounds wear faster and tend to scallop easier even with a proper alignment. Just my experience working in a shop with different makes
