So wait a second. Am I to understand that there are hardly any tires out ther for the 18" factory wheels? I'm probably going to be in the market for new tires this summer. I'm at 38,875 and they're beginning to look light in the tread area.

Yep the selection sucks if you want to match up your factory tires. Now after seeing the 6.2 may make its way in 08 im hoping my tires last that long and ill just trade it instead

Hands down the best set of AT tires I've ever owned. Very quiet on the road too.

I didn't like mine Dueler AT's at all. I had them on a Ranger. They weren't that great in the mud and they only lasted about 30k.

Just my $.02, but if you want a tire to run mud with, you need a mud tire.

Mine did way above what I ever expected them to in the mud. They probably won't cut mud as deep as the axle, but they did just fine wherever I put them.

I got over 40k out of the set that I had. Tire mileage is highly dependant on your driving habits. I've had tires that didn't last 25k miles that were good tires.
