Got some new BFG's 305/65/18's

Love these tires. I was very nervous going to a 10 ply but the ride is actually much better (at 35 PSI). I plan on adding some air after a 400 mile road trip with the wife. It was just the look I was going for, height and width.

There's a couple more in my album if my upload didn't work.

That is a great size! I almost went with those, I decided on 295/65R18 Duratracs. Yours look great! Great tire!

Looks great! I run mine at 40 psi and they seem to be wearing fine.

Thanks guys. I keep finding myself checking out my truck.

I just put in a 500 mile road trip and they rode great. Though I noticed my traction control has gone off a couple times. I'm going to add 5-10 lbs of pressure for the trip back and see if the ride differs.

Call BFG and give them the year and specs, they'll tell you what they recommend.. After talking to Wandell and BFG they both suggested 45lbs for mine.
