Right on, thanks Wandell, i'll take a peek at those brands too, kinda decided though on some bfg a/t ko, 285/70/17, but see what happens, think i'll sell my 20's first, if not the house will look like a junkyard with all the tires around.

In the mud they we're okay.
But in sleet/snow covered roads, useless i found, couldn't get any traction at all, its winter about 5 months out of the year up here, and all 5 months i battled with those tires.
With the noise, found they we're a lil loud, but nothing to bad, just the problems i found we're traction.
I sold them to a guy with a 2001 dodge, and he says the same about the traction, but to him he doesn't care, he likes the aggressive look of them.

That was my thing too, the aggressive look, but 5 minutes after i left fountain tire and got stuck, i kicked myself in the a$$.
Hopefully they'll do you right though, the tires i changed to we're pro com M/ts, 33x12.5x17 when i put my lift on, those we're good tires, had no problems with them if your ever in the market for some other meats.
