Different Ply's and load ratings. the 113s is a 4/6ply and the 121R is a 10ply. Our trucks come stock with 4/6ply for the 1500's. Generally 10ply would go on 2500/3500 It will be a stiff ride too. My Coopers are XL rated at 119s

Go with the 4/6 ply, 10 ply is great if you do a lot of heavy towing or load down your vehicle, but it will make the ride harsher under normal driving conditions.

So I ended up buying the
Nitto Terra Grappler AT
P265/70R-17 113S B

Paid a total of 896 at americas discount tires
but that included the certificate to replace or repair the tires and life time rotation and balance

Hopefully I'll get them by Fri so I can post some pics thanks for all the input guys!
