    I'm definitely getting some when my current tires wear out. Popped one recently and got the last Rugged Terrain in the country.

    I love my Cooper ST Pros (ST Maxx's are good too). I think some 255s would like real nice with your setup.

    Super clean truck, and a great start to your build! Hooyah! :thumbsup::cheers::oldglory:

    I went with the Federals mostly because of the price point. I didn't want to spend close to $1000 for a full set of tires. I a found a hell of deal of $478 shipped to a store through walmart at the time and I couldn't pass it up. And I just love the aggressive look that they give.

    They look great, and that's a steal compared to what I paid for my Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs.

    As Philip said, would be great to hear a review of how they hold up, cab noise etc...

    Curious to know how much beating and banging you'll have to do to fit the 285/75/R16 with no rubbing.

    Great choice on the wheels, they are perfect for that color truck.

    Appreciate it. I'll be sure to keep you guys updated. I'd be happy if I can get 30k on these tires knowing these are cheap tires as long as my alignment is good and to rotate them.
