Default Tire Time

So I have a set of wheels that I want 20 inches . Now I have to decide on a tire . I want a 33 . I have a 04 4x4 that is leveled . I need opinions on tires . I want a semi aggressive looking tire like a ( Terra grapler) but I need the wear to be good also. I don't go much offroading but I want the look ! Some opinions please ! Thanks guys

The Terra Grapplers are a great tire, don't rule them out quite yet. I have also heard good things about the Cooper Zeon LTZ's

I have the Yokohama Geolandar A/T-S on my truck, nice aggressive tread pattern and a 50,000 mile tire.

The neighbor has Dick Cepek FCII. Looks good for that aggressive look. He has them on his 04 1500 and on his 98 2500. The tires on the 98 have been on there for 5 years and lots of miles.

That's my current tire of choice. Anybody been around here for any length of time knows I likes my Mickey Thompson/Dick Cepek tires, but NONE of their models are cheap.

I have had my Cepeks on for 31k miles and they are just now starting to show the first signs of wear. I fully expect to see 65-70k miles out of them.

Off Road Adventures just did a good write up on them this month...
