    Duratracs look nice. they look more aggressive in person once on your truck. Another good selection could be the Dick Cepek Fun Country II's, another aggressive all terrain (have long life too). IMO i would just get an all terrain for you application. Never been much of a fan of bfg.

    all terrain

    more agressive tread patterns of MT will be useless onroad, will decrease wet-weather traction, and will decrease MPG

    if you're not going to use it, don't get it

    I've got a set of Fierce MT Tires and although they look sweet on the truck I have never taken them off road other than some gravel trails to launch my kayaks. Took about a 1 MPG hit also but they look awesome on my pavement princess.;)

    Duratracs. Def the best for on-road use. Im assuming more quiet than the mud tires.

    Love my BFG all-terrain T/A KOs! They've got enough of an aggressive look, and they make an excellent all-around tire in Colorado, on- and off-road, in rain, snow, dirt, and mud.

    if you're looking for an all terrain tire thats pretty light check out bfg rugged terrain. it's what i have and i love them. also its a lot lighter than most other all terrains, but then again i don't have the e load tire

    Have had Duratracs on two different vehicles. Really like that they are just a bit more aggressive than most all terrains and they have plenty of siping, so they do great in snow, ice, and rain. They do have a little noise, but not as bad as most MT's I've heard.
