What kind of tires do you want/need? Stock size street tire, all terrain, or mud tire? Theres lots of different ones out there but some popular ones are bfg a/ts, nitto trail grapplers, terra grapplers, toyo m/ts and a whole lot more. Also what are you looking to get out of the tire as far as road noise and mileage?

The toyo m/ts are a good tire, as long as you keep them rotated/balanced and keep the alignment good then you should get around 50k miles out of them. Also the bfg a/ts are a good long lasting tire and you should easily get 50-60k out of them.

GT Grabbers, I just got them and love them. I had Open Country's but I got sick of the street tire look.

I had the same problem with choosing tires i had alot of feed back on my thread. check it out. I went with the 35x12.5x17 Pro Comp Xtream A/Ts. Love them so far! Good luck on your search.

All I can say is 'say no to Kumho!'

I have gotten 40K out of the ones on my truck but I have had to plug and patch these more than any other tires I have ever owned. Local dirt roads have destroyed the tread.

Check out Bf Goodrich Tires - Their All-Terrains and Rugged Terrain options are pretty darn good. Ofcourse, if you want top of the line, then you should definitely consider a couple of options by Michelin Tires - Their LTX M/S2 is a phenomenal tire and if you want something more rugged, take a look at the LTX A/T2.
