    Just like the title says. NEED to get new tires like now. What do you think are the best 295/70/17s for a dd that'll see the dirt on the weekends.

    Holy shit... There are not 295s that are good for a dd.. If I had to pick one I would say Nitto Trail Grappler. I would have gotten them for my rig if they came in the configuration that I was looking for.

    Trail Grapplers are my #1 pick, followed by Cooper Discoverer STT and then Toyo Open Country

    Because I think they look better. Have a few friends and we all have the same truck, same lift, and their trucks look "beefier" with the 295's. Im open to a good 285 as well. Just tired of the plain looking terra grappler at

    dont tempt me haha. I still wanna be able to fit something under there with relative ease. Ive already trimmed and dont mind trimming some more or grinding down the cab mount. Just would like a good all around tire.
