Question tire size

Came across a special on General 255/70R16 for $250. Has anyone used these tires? I may consider them due to price, but want more info.
Also has anyone used the Pro Comp tires? They have a new size of 265/75R16. I may consider these later, but would want a gear change to go along with it.

Generals suck with the exception of the Grabbers, but they are only available for 15" rims which you can't use. My advice is go with pro comp or another brand.

My 2 cents worth

If you're gonna stroke it, POWERSTROKE IT!!!

Cool

Had them on my first truck, they sucked. Dad has them on his 2000 F250 4x4, they are terrible. So generally, they suck. BFG, Pro Comp, Michelin, etc...anything is better......well, Firestone is terrible too.
