Air pressure makes a big difference in how well tires grip off road.
At 80 psi with BFG AT my truck will spin the right rear tire on wet grass!!
Now that I have a tuner and lowered the TPMS threshold I run them at 55 (only when unloaded)
The lower pressure greatly affects the tires footprint.

get some bfg ko2's or another set of dedicated hunting wheels with some mud tires. that's what we do for my dads truck. this way if you're travelling long distance you're putting all those miles and abuse on different tires


my SD isn't a daily driver anymore so I have toyo mt's on it. great tires. air pressure is key to proper contact patch and traction.
