I'm running the 315's and they're as good as any and rides quite, looks good and seems to be holding up pretty good considering I seem to spin the rear way to often.

Yes i had them on my truck. They didn't hold up worth crap, however that was solely because of the BTS. Heck, before the tranny my tires looked awesome.

All these marks are from those tires. They do not put too much traction on MD roads.

I bought a set of Uniroyal Liberators from Wal-Mart - $540 installed!! They handle well, arent' noisy, and are lasting pretty good - i've got 30,000 on them already (since last October!!) and i'd say they're 2/3 worn - throw in another $40 for the Road Hazard and they're tough to beat - this is my first set of tires on Nyx so I don't have others to compare to

We just put Nitto A/T's on my g/f's truck and they cost about $900 with the Road Hazard from Discount Tire - I haven't ridden in her truck since she got them, but they are an "E" load rated tire and she needs that

I'm on my second set of 315's, I love 'em! They ride just like the stockers, and they're real good at snow and anything off road. Especially off road, considering how aggressive they're not. They've out lasted anything else I've had on my truck so far.
