So I was going to go with BFG's All-Terrain T/A KO's or
Goodyear DuraTac
I was going to go with 35"s but now im thinking of going this size...
LT275/70/18E Which is about 33x11x18?
What do you guys think?
I have 305/65/18's BFG All Terrain T/A KO's on my 2006 F250 (33.6 inch tire) & no rub issues whatsoever. This is like the 4th truck ive owned w/BFG T/A KO's & ive loved every set, they ride smooth, quiet, wear well & since they have a 10 ply sidewall the truck rides very stable while pulling the 5'er



Although when i first bought my current truck it had 20" Nitto's on it which did ride good, i didnt keep em long cause i didnt like the chrome wheels

Thank you! I love my truck. I actually really like Pro Comp lifts. A lot of people really don't like them because they are a little bit stiff, but my self I prefer them.

Here is a link to Pro Comps website. they have alot of different packages that you can choose from. I bought the lift as a package and then I added in the front dual shocks.

I actually just made a cross country trip from CA to FL (2400 miles), and I can tell you that the Toyo M/T did great. The trip was nice and smooth, they ride great, noice isn't too bad and I was pulling about 12k lbs. So i can atest to the Toyos hold up great even on long trips.

The wheels and tires are by far my favorite addition. Granted there hasn't been a ton of additions. I'm done with my truck for now. Spending my spare change on other toys for now.
