Most metric tires ( LT275/65r20) load range E tires will be 80 psi and rated at 3750 lbs capacity.
The Floatation tires with sizes like 35x12.5r20 will be 65 psi and rated at 3195 lbs capacity.

I have not used them much in snow, but I have found the Michelin Hwy tires (M/S2) to be the best tires, and last for a long time. I have done quite a bit of offroading in them as well (no mud however), and they have surprised me. 70k mile warranty is good too.
I do quite like the standard Michelin A/T2's that come with the truck, but as someone else mentioned, when loaded heavily they do accelerate their wearing.

I do get wheel spin very easily in soft ground though, wet grass and mud do not get along with these tires in my experience.
I think that for the money there are better options for winter and/or wet ground but they're certainly still good tires. I'm still inclined to prefer the cooper discoverer at3 tires for all around highway, load rating, and off road.

Yeah, the Coopers are great. When my Michelins are worn out, I wanted to fit them - but sadly they don't make them in 295/65 R20 - because I want to change to that tire size. I will have to go with the Toyo AT2's.

I thought about these also but I put the Toyo AT2s on my girlfriend's Ranger and they are a little too noisy a tire for me.
