I loved Dunlop Radial Rover A/Ts on my old Ram. That thing went through everything that I tossed at it which included muddy feilds with fully loaded hay wagons behind it.

Those are really expensive and do good, but mainly offroad. I would go with the BFG All Terrians if you do a majority of on road driving. Also the Goodyear MTR's would be a lot louder while driving just like the BFG MT's. Just our opinions though. Its your money so if you really like the look of either of the MT's and think you'll use them and that they would be worth the money go for it, but I would personally take the BFG AT's since they will last longer, do just as good, and will be a little more civil for on road driving.

This is my buddy's Sierra...

he has the Goodyear Wrangler MTR, actually he is on his third set.... to make a long story short, this truck only has 45,000 miles on it.... 3 sets of MTR's.... it is his DD and he says the tires suck for on-road use and he can't keep it on the road in the rain, he keeps buying them becuase he thinks they look good and has extra $$ to throw around...lol

defiately would not have the mtr's they are really loud, they chop really hard when you turn at low speeds, and handling sucks, at 60+ mph your truck starts to sway all over the road.

I was actually looking at the General Grabber A/T's

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....es&place=8

I compared them to a lot of tires there and they are decently priced (cheaper then the others I was looking at), have a higher warranty, and they were rated fairly close together. Plus they have a slightly more aggressive tread pattern in my opinion.

Those dont look too bad actually. Havent used these specific ones but General makes an ok tire. If ya get a set let us know how they turn out. Who knows, we might have a cheaper alternative to BFG AT's.
