I have 285/65-18's on my truck since last year. When I first put them on I had to lower the air pressure in the tires. They were unstable on the highway like driving on ice at higher tire pressures. Not as bad now as they were when they were new, some of it may have been from the mold release agents on the tires. Other than that they have been very good and look sharp on the truck. I have pics of them in my gallery. As with most tires in a performance oriented category they wear out at a faster rate.

I had a set of the Toyo AT's on my truck (the 37" AT's) and they were alright. It was my only option at the time (no MT's in stock anywhere) and they lasted me almost 3 years, think I put 40-50k on 'em. My problem was looks though, lifted truck with AT's, lame...
Running the MT's now and love 'em, loud enough to put all 3 boys to sleep on the highway, but quiet enough to have a conversation!!

I have the ATs in 315/75/16 (35x12.50) and they are a great tire. The only reason I'm changing is I got some used wheels with Cooper STTs that have about 60% treat left. After those wear out I'll be looking at the ATs again, only this time on an 18" rim for a increased load rating.

BFG A/Ts have always been a very good all around tire for me. When I go four wheeling with clubs the most popular tires are BFG ATs, Goodyear MTRs, Mickey Thompson, and Intercos. But thease guys are hard core fourwheelers.
For great mileage and price, right now I run Procomp ATs on my Bronco. They wear well on the street and are ok for offroading. The only weak point is the thin side walls (2 ply).
