I Highly recommend the Gladiator QR900-AT. They are cheap, Load Range E and are not very noise. They have an overall good grip. Have them on my Farm truck for a while now and also did interstate travel with them and heavy pulling.

I always recommend at least looking at tire rack...type in your tire size...and do a comparison among a few...it shows how many miles have been logged by customers...and those customers ratings...
When you have a tire (size 285/75/16) that has logged 35,000,000 miles and has a good customer rating 8.61/10 or 4.5 stars out of 5 across 1801 reviews it must be a pretty decent tire... Firestone destination a/t's that is...
I do a lot of highway driving so I prefer a tire that has a highway rib down the middle.

on the 235/85/16 side of the bench the dueler at revo 2's and the yokohama geolandar a/t-s both have some decent reviews..
now if I would have only know that the obs body style came with 235's not 215 per the model specs on tire racks web site I would be golden...looks like it is pizza cutters for me for a long while...

The 235's were an option up until 1996 on the drw 4x2's according to tirerack... 97 it only listed the 215's

NOPE. 4wds use a different offset rim to allow the wider 235 tire
