    Hey guys, ok so I need some advice/opinions on a new tire set up. I currently have 275/55r20 terra grapplers and I definitely want to try a new style/tread. These have lasted a hell of a long time(over 2 years) but now I'm looking for something new. I am also applying 5100's to replace my front setup. So with a price range set between $800-$1000 and a style in mind I've looked at the new Cooper Zeon LTZ($850 at local tire dealer) and a few others but I'm hoping to get a few opinions from you guys. I'm wondering if possibly a 275/65 would fit and be more suitable? Feel free to post some pics. :thumbsup:

    im running firestone destination...got them cheap and have a killer treadwear warranty. im running 285/70/17 and there not super agressive but you can tell there an all terrain. there also fairly quiet on road. so far i like them

    Yeah Destination A/T's are good tires, I had them for 55K miles. They were good in all conditions.

    Thanks guys but I guess I'm gonna have to switch to a m/t because I'm just not finding what I'm looking for in an a/t. Seems like the terra grapplers and the cooper zeons are the most aggressive under the a/t class and I don't think I'll be happy with either one
