Kumho and Goodyear. You might find a better price with the Goodyear tires but the Kumhos will perform better.

Are Nitto's available for the size? Damn good street tire if you get the higher end ones. Its what I tried to get for my truck, but they aren't available for its size. I wish I had the selection available you guys have, but performance tires for 275/55/20 are tough to find!

M&H is the only drag radial that'll work on a GEN 1 wheel (at or close to 30" tall). There are about 4 or 5 other options for street tires though.

Cooper also makes the 255/50/17 size.

Nitto also makes the NT555 in that size which is an excellent tire.
