That's easy: Toyo AT 2. Will last longer, quieter. They both look good. I have a few buddies with them and the LOVE them.

All of those would make great choices, out of the Terra's, bfg,and cooper zeon.
I would just decide which one you like the looks of best and check prices.

I have the Terra's on my 98 with about 55,000 miles on them with decent tread left.
They are very quite and ride good.
I've had the bfg all terrains in the past and good about 75,000 miles out of them.
They rode excellent.
Can't go wrong with any of them like I said, if I was to buy a set of all terrains now I would probably go with the cooper zeons just because I haven't had them and I like the look of them.
On another note if you are like me and like the look of a mt tire, the toyo mt and nitto trail grapplers are very street friendly. And last. I have the toyo open country mts on my 09 fx4 with about 30,000 miles on them and very little wear, and they. Are not to loud at all.

Cool

I think that's a good choice. I've been using Cooper tires for years. I have a two sets of the AT'3's. The first set I put on a set of stock rims. When I pulled them off to install my new chrome rims, they had about 18,000 or so and hardly looked warn. I think you'll be happy!

Nice choice. I got rid of trail grapplers after 5000 miles and put ltz's on. A great looking tire and much more comfortable ride.

The Toyo's are also very nice,but from what I've read they are a tad bit noisier on the highway and will spit rocks out of the tread a little more than BFG's. The BFG's will also spit rocks, just the toyo will do it even more. As mentioned earlier, BFG's have a tread pattern & bitchin sidewall nobody else has. That's always a plus and gets my vote. Coopers didn't have anything in my size.

Here's mine. A 285/55/20 (32.5" by 11.1" wide).I have no level on the truck.


You have no idea how much this pic has helped me make a decision. I wish you had the level kit though. I really want to wait until i do that to buy tires. Do you have any more pics of your truck? Possibly full body? The truck, not you .

Tires and leveling kit installed. Completely changed the look. I love it. Rides great, but I can definitely tell it takes more uuumph to take off and more brake to stop.

They look great...nice size tires but close on the inside to the control arm due to the stock wheel's.
