Title says it all...What brand of tires do you use or currently have on your truck?

When my lowering kit gets in I want to upgrade my stock 245/75R16's to 265/70R16's. Anybody have any suggestions on this?

Lowering Kit Huh??? :secret:
Doesn't your signature say "Lifted Fan Club Member #1" :nutkick:

After that I agree with Blueflamed, Nittos, nice look and a good price!

Haha...Yeah! I was gonna lift it but plans changed due to some money issues. So lowering is the cheaper way to Modify the truck currently.

I'm running 305/40/22 Falkens and love them! Seem to be wearing better than the nittos that were on it before too.

305/35/24 duron f-one. only drawback is that the tread pattern picks up alot of little things like rocks. on the stock wheels i used 265/70/16 goodyear tracker. they were pretty good and lasts a while.

i've had 305/35/24 kumho ecsta, 325/45/24 pirellie atrs, 35x1450x20 superswamper iroks, 33x13.50x20 iroks, 35x12.50x18 nitto mudgrapplers, and a set of 305/40/22 toyo proxes. i would have 2 say the toyo proxes were the worst riding tires i've ever owned.

Nitto Terra Grapplers here. I raped discount tire on a price match deal, got them out the door for around $500 and change. Great tire for an even better price.

If your just looking for a highway tire you cant beat the Michelin ltx m/s.

Yeah, Looking for a good on-road highway tire. I looked into a set of Falken ZIEX S/TZ04's. Discount Tire told me $700 out the door installed on my stock rims.

Also looked at a set of 16x8 MB Motoring "Predator" Rims. Install and all (With falken tires) $1200.

The Grand's rolling on Dueler A/T Revos. No complaints on them at all. Prior to that, it was rolling on Cooper Discoverer A/T's, only complaint was the highway noise was too loud for my tastes.

Tahoe's got some brand new Pep Boys tires on them. Who knows what I'll replace them with.

Depends on size. I've had great luck with my pro comp ats (made by cooper). Also love the toyo proxes, nitto 420s, kumhos, nokians, pirelli are all great tires.

I'm running Cooper XST-A 295/35 24. I wanted the Yokohama's but these were cheaper. I was actually surprised how smooth and quiet they are. No vibration either.

go toyo, if your going on stock wheels, proxis really aren't what you want, go open country h/t, or the s/t for a little more styling
