If they are Duratrac tires, they are just straight garbage tires in the first place.

I agree Duratracs are not a good tire to begin with and OEM ones make it worse imo. The more aggressive the tire the louder it will be, the most aggressive and least noise imo are the BFG KO2 tires. You won't be satisfied until you get some decent tires on that truck and the factory won't be able to provide that for you so dont waste your time. You are going to have to bite the cost to get a good set of tires, is what it is, it's why it is best to work a set of good tires in when you buy the truck as i said OEM ones are about the lowest quality tires the manufacture could work a deal for.

i agree with grumpy, you have to find a good independent that knows what they are doing. my 2014 was aligned once a year and never cupped a tire. my 2020 has been aligned 3 times in the last 2 years and has ruined a second set of tires. either GM specs are wrong or their alignment equipment sucks. once the cupping starts you can never stop it

Agree with this. We've had to go back to the dealer again after each of the last three alignments we've had them perform because they have left our truck pulling or the steering wheel off center worse than it was when it went in for an alignment in the first place.
