[QUOTE="Marky Dissod, post: 28112, member: 13218"] Don't know if you're aware that kinda contradicts Their argument barely holds a sip of H2O ... they put on '1500' tires (you were not fully aware that that's what you asked for) that are adequate for a 1/2 ton pickup truck, especially if it's usually empty-bedded and hardly ever tows / hauls anything heavy. LT tires are for towing / hauling LOTS OF HEAVY STUFF. Of course a truck that works or plays HARD needs LT Load Range E tires. In LT245/75R16, Load Range E, I'd get FALKEN WILDPEAK A/T4W, looks like the best bang for the buck In LT265/75R16, Load Range E, the MICHELIN DEFENDER LTX M/S (NOT M/S2, just M/S) is available, but once again, I'd recommend the FALKEN WILDPEAK A/T4W, a more capable tire for less money In either size the Sumitomo Encounter AT2 also comes in Load Range E, also lots of tire for the money. There are of course other good choices, like BFGOODRICH ALL-TERRAIN T/A KO3 (KO2 would also be acceptable, this time) TOYO OPEN COUNTRY A/T III FIRESTONE DESTINATION X/T NITTO TERRA GRAPPLER G3 GOODYEAR WRANGLER WORKHORSE AT2 (NOT AT without the 2!) GENERAL GRABBER A/TX My bias (is it apparent?) prioritizes extra capabilities for contingencies. If yours does not, more power to you; use TireRack or SimpleTire's choice matrices. [/QUOTE]
