New truck....so nothing yet

I am currently running BFG Mud Terrain T/A's 255/75/17 and they are a great tire but just not for me. I am thinking of switching to back to the Bridgestone Dueler A/T's Revo's in size 285/70/17. Is anyone running these? Opinions on them? My taco just seem to run MUCH better while using them.

The BFG's are an awesome tire, my only real complaints: 1-A little too noisy. 2-Throw HUGE Fricken rocks. 3-Killing my MPG ( I am driving highway more now.)

I love my BFG's but you are correct. They are heavy and throw shit. Mine aren't noisy.
