    Do you have wheels with 4.5" backspacing, and a 3" lift?

    I had Toyo Open Country ATs on my '05 and they were great. If you go with a Mud Terrain, you will hear them hum while you drive. The ATs are quiet...

    Hitch and wiring, aux back-up light, rear strobe lights, radio and underseat sub.
    If you go where there's mud, get mt's. If not, at's. At's clog up with mud, but are good everywhere else.
    Bfg at's are good, but general grabber at2 is a better value.

    I don't like tires with just a little tread left on them... so they may have lasted longer, but I had them for about 35,000 miles. Tires don't last as long for me as others seem to get... The stock Rugged Trails are only good to 25,000 miles, if that.

    The biggest size without a lift would be 265/75-16... and those should be about $650 a set... I think they were when I got them.
