    Please post pics of your 1st generation with skinny tires.

    I currently have 285/75/R16 BFG Mud Terrains on my 2002 xtracab with 3 inch lift. I just bought a set of oem steel wheels that i'm going to put 235/85/R16 tires on. I saw the skinny tire thread, but there were very few 1st gens in it, so I thought I'd see if there were more.

    Also need opinions on the currently available skinny tires in 235/85/16. I'm currently considering:

    Toyo Open Country A/T III
    Falken Wildpeak A/T 3w

    I love the look of the Yokohama Geo M/T g003's but don't know if I can justify another mud tire when I do mostly pavement driving. I'd like something aggressive looking, because it's cool, I'll admit it.

    A little information.

    Currently live in upstate, SC but travel north sometimes, so an A/T would be good with the snow rating.

    Might move up north, where there is a lot of snow. In that case I could probably go with anything as I would get a set of snow tires for winter. I'll have the stock alloy wheels that are on there now for spare wheels.

    There is 8-9/32nds left on the current BFG mud terrains, I may keep them or pull them.

    I'll probably drive 5000-7000 miles a year, so not a lot. I'm just looking for opinions of tires you've had, especially skinny sizes. Thanks.
