I need a new set of rubber on the Dak (1998 4x4). Was born with Goodyear Wranglers 31x10.50x15's. I'm getting sticker shock. Is there a P-metric that will work? I'm after a smoother ride and don't carry enough of a load to warrant a 6 ply truck tire. Would like a little better ride, with some resonable wear rate. It's an every day driver and tow my fishing boat in the summer.
Any suggestions?

 

the bfg AT, i love them good grip and everything with bout 25K on them

 

265/70-16 is what i'm running, goodyear tracker 2's. $96 or so at walmart, each, when i bought them. Can't say much about tread wear, i bought them for the large contact patch and good sized tread for non-dry driving. I haven't measured current vs stock depth, but visually on the Tony Stewart rating system, it would be "no comment".

(The Stewart rating system uses a range from "I want hoosiers" [wears too quick] to "Make the front bar bigger and take the rear bar off..i have no grip whatsoever" [doesn't wear at all])

 

put a set of 31\10.5\15 dunlop radial rover a/t 's on my 97 4x4, they ride smooth, don't whine, good traction on and off road, bought them @ pep boys while they were running the buy 3 get 1 free special, so far i am really impressed with them, i haven't run dunlop tires since my 1980 big hair,chevelle days,

 

Im running 31's bfg AT's (98 dak slt 4x4 5.2) They have a little bit of road noise but with my dual exhaust I dont even notice them anymore. My truck sees every kind of terrain and these tires have never let me down. They wear very well and I plan on buying them again.

 

pro comp xtreme at's... they have your size. I have 95k miles on a set that is nearing the end of their life... I have yet to get stuck with them, they grip really well (better the BFG's IMO) in wet weather and have performed well in snow, sand & shallow mud.

 

ET streets FTW.

 

Right now I have Toyo Open Country A/T's and have been a good tire to me. Did good in snow and mud, not sure if you do any of that driving, but they are an excellent tire.

 

Has anybody been able to put 15'' rims on their Dak before? i want to do it, but they hit the calipers in the front. Thank you

 

so if you do you gunna hook me up with yours?
