Help with tire selection
Recently purchased 2007 F150 4x4 supercrew with Generals. Dealer wants to replace with Hankook 255x70R17 tires. Good choice or any suggestions...

those are crap tires...and to small for a 4x4 i have no idea why ford put that size on some but not others...anyways go with either a 265/70R17 or a 285/70R17. Both will fit stock. As for tires here is some suggestions, Nitto Terra Grappler, BFG AT, Bridgstone Dueler Revo, Goodyear Silent Armor, Michelin M/S...to name a few.
