    These are only available in Load Range E, correct?

    Do you (and others) not find them to ride pretty harsh? I know when I had my MTZ's on my 2007, they were Load Range E and they rode really harsh.

    Yes , E rated

    You are probably running 16" rims, correct? If so, them being D-rated makes sense. I prefer 16" rims for that reason.

    Duratracs look sick. I put 265/70-17 on mine and love them. Had to take off the front flaps though.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Good. I can hardly wait to get my BFG Commercial T/A's.images_12cb4a36dfb370ff06334ac32199c4ab4657045a.jpg
    The Commercial Traction T/A''s could be awesome for offroading but I'm on pavement.images_be6dcb82da5ac6b427183028d576e76efc086f9d.jpg

    Get the Hankooks if you don't go offroad that much and you have a mileage warranty of 60,000.
