Default Where can i find commercial style tires

I have a 2004 ram 1500 stock 4x4 with the 20" rims, I want to find either 20" steelies or 17" steelies and match them with a commercial style tire like the ones on deliver trucks. I commute from Jacksonville onto Camp Lejeune each day and want more of a road tire that can be used off road in limited use. Any suggestions? More or less keeping the ride height around where it is.

I don't know about commercial tires for our trucks. But if you want a good on road tire for limited off road use look into some BFGs, Michelin's or Coopers

You could check into Maxxis UE-168(N) Bravo Series tires. They're highway tires but won't be cheap. I run similar tires on my trailer and they've been great. Won't get 20's but 17's should be available

Your commute isn't long enough for those to be a benefit. With all the sand around that area I would go with Duratracs or BFG All Terrains. Now, if you lived in Elizabeth City, Goldsboro, or Fayetteville...maybe.

I went to my Kal Tire in town to price out 2 matching rear tires for my girlfriends car, and the guy looked at the tires on her car and said "Cooper, hmmm, never heard of those." I promptly asked for a manager's assistance.

He was like that commercial "What's up, customer man?". *roll eyes*
