Default Need Some New Tire Recommendations

All,

Its time to replace the OEM tires (Michelin P245/70R17) on my '03 QC (8ft) 4x4. I'll keep the existing wheels. Any recommendations for replacement tires? I live a mile off the black top in rural Virginia. I do use 4WD, maybe once a week for moving across fields but most of my driving is on-road. Occaisonally I'll haul firewood/fence posts in the truck bed. I would like a tire that looks like a truck tire, but I do not require knobby mudders. I am interested in the largest tire that will fit on the OEM wheels. Thanks for your feedback.

Jim

The 20's are boat ankers, frickin HEAVY. From a performance standpoint, the 17's are much better. The price he has is OK, but I've seen better.

No need to argue.
Oh, by the way, STOP YELLING!
A little computer etiquette, a spell checker, and a clue when and when not to post will get you a lot more help (or sales) when you are using forums.
And this forum is a place for advice, so if you don't want it, don't post.
