I have heard good things about the Nittos. I'm looking for a good mix between taller & wider.

Well I installed the Duratracs (315/75/16). So far so good. The sidewalls are very weak(could be because of the narrow rims: stock Lariat rims.). A quick jab to the wheel and the truck leans on them, doesn't feel to good. Also have some minor rub on the leaf springs but it's not bad AT ALL. The only problem I have that needs to be fixed is on the front driver side tire. It rubs the inner fender well when turning slightly. It's only plastic but I need to do something about it. Pictures to come tomorrow.

ok stumbled across the pictures. though i had deleted them from the puter. i added them to my albums as well but here they are






on the last picture you can see where it rubs the spring. it did rub the inner fender well for a day or two but i self cleared the area after a few turns. in the rear i used a zip tie to pull the rubber flaps back a little bit but it really want a issue

Yse stock wheels and stock ride height. I liked the set up. I will probably end up with 35" tires on the 06 in a year or so when the stockers are done.
