    if ur gonna do road driving then get some A/T... either way ur gonna be putting on a big tired so ur truck doesnt look funky so try to get the lightest ones possible.. the toyos a/t has a good weight ratio.

    I dunno your price range but if you look into Peformance parts magazine they got a deal from Pro Comp since they own them. 6" lift and 35s and rims for about 2600 bucks.

    See tire rack website for comparos.

    I got Deualler Revo's and I'm happy with both the aggressive appearance, AND the smooth, quiet ride.

    Much better than the stock BFG Rugged Trails, which scored about 35th place.

    definitely, the revo's are great all around tires. i had them on my 06 and they did great, both on and off road. they are a bit pricey, but they are worth it.
