BFG ATs are probably the best of the AT tires for on and off road, wear well, and are not real noisey.

I was happy with my BFG all terrains traction. But the seem to puncture fairly easily. I never had the same problem goodyear MTRs. Personally I wouldnt waste money on ATs, MTs arent that much noiser and they are so much better offroad.

i have been real happy with my 35 BFG MT's. they do good in the mud and on the road. as for your stock truck i would run 31's but you could fit 32's with not problem. you might rub with 33's being your truck is stock. just my $.02. good luck!!
what year truck do you have!

ok i'm a little confused on how to tell the size of the tire i get the rim size and which one would fit but how do i tell the 31 part? I think i've decided on the 31 mud terrains if i can afford them my budget is around 750ish for a set of 4 so how do i read the tire numbers

If you have 16 inch wheels then the stock tires are probably something like a p265 75R16.
This means that the tread width is 265 mm the side wall is 75% of the 265 and the tire is for a 16 inch wheel.
I am not sure what the metric equivalent is for a 31" or 32" tall tire but whoever you buy the tire from should be able to help you out with the numbers.

Well i bought my tires :-D. After a long deliberation i decided to go with the 32" bfg all terrain and they are very nice. I have to do the smallest amount of a fender trim it rubs the slightest little bit when the wheel is turned hard and i hit a bump. thnx for all the help guys.
