As for these tires in this thread, they are cheap but they don't look like they are made for a heavy diesel truck. More for a half ton application....
id go with them but i cant find them in a 35x12.50 or a 315 for a 17" rim. so my options right now are procomp xats or a set of mickey thompson atz's.. im not sticking with bfg.

Don't know what sizes they offer, but check out the Yokohama Geolandar A/TS. Don Thuren has these on his truck, and he beats the hell out of them and they still look great. They are cheap, also! I'm thinking about selling my 35" Toyo M/Ts and buying a set of Geolandars in 37".

Buddy of mine has them on his 3500 (37x13.50x20) and they wear as fast as a mud tire I've seen on these heavy trucks. I'd still get them though, they look great. What do you exspect for a mud tire?

garcia, how many miles did you get out of yours? did the 325s rub with the h2 rims? they are 13" wide according to the toyo site. my bfgs arent that wide, so im wondering if they will rub with the lorenz leveling kit..

I'm still rolling on them. I think they have about 20k-22k miles on them now, and I should be able to get another 8k-10k if I take care of them, which I won't 'cause I haven't taken care of them yet. If you're vigil about rotations and air pressure you should be able to get 40k out of a set.

I would get just a tad of rub with the H2s and stock suspension. Once I installed the 2" springs all rubbing went away.

I've had good experiences with Treaddepot FWIW. Put some Toyo OC on my dads F150. They have great prices...

Well, the Kumhos in the original post are only B Rated. I sure would not want them on my truck if I was going to tow or haul anything.....
