Default Tires for your Ram.

Im wondering what you guys run for tires? I need a new set for the Ram 150 I just bought, Im thinking either BFG All Terrains or Rugged Trails for the expensive choice, or the budget choice of Hercules Terra Trac M/T or Terra Trac A/W, I like the A/W's at most for their price and decent rating.

One of the biggest determining factors in tire choice is how the vehicle is to be used. Right now I have a set of Firestone destinations on that I am relitively pleased with. They seem to have a fairly decient bite in snow and on ice, and don't seem to bad in small amounts of mud. But I really needed tires at the time and had to go with what was handy. When I replace these, I plan on going with a set of Wild Country RVTs I have a smaller set I have ran for about 6 years and they still have about half the tread left on them.

I run Maxxis Buck Shot on my 86 Power Ram. They are only about $120 a tire.
