    So much more weight capacity for camping gear and super great smooth ride with all that gear in the back. I'm running Goodyear Duratracs 285/70/17's. I love em dude! Next set I'll consider trying the MT/R's but these have been an awesome tire for me so far!

    Yeah exactly, i feel a lot better about all the gear i can load in the back of there now. Maybe even build some drawers or something.

    I've been going back and forth between the Goodyear DuraTrac and the BFG KO2 in a 285/70-17 but i think I want to try out the BFGs out. I gotta stick with an AT because I drive my truck to work 3 days a week and countless freeway miles too and from trail heads or else i would probably get those MT/Rs which look sick!

    Heck yeah man. I had the icon AAL's for a minute and they were horrible for camping and expedition type trips. They sagged so badly. Got my Dakars and never looked back! They're holding up great!

    Totally up to you man. I think they're both nice tires. I've had my duratracs for almost 18k miles now and they've worn so well. I still have so much tread. Whatever you go with they're gonna look dope on that white DCLB!!! FTW!!!

    For what I like to do the 3" mid travel is perfect. If the truck was for looks, i would for sure got the 6" lift. All depends on your needs.
