Cooper Zeon LTZ
They were £603 which at £1 = 1.5806 means they cost $953.11.
That's without fitting and balancing etc.
Thanks btw, for all the + comments.

I will be buying these tires soon. Quick question for you guys who have experience with them... I was going to go with the 305/50/20's because I wanted a wider tire. I live in Michigan so I will be driving through rain, snow and of course the summer weather. I don't off road in my truck. My question is should I go with the wider tire or would I be better off sticking to the closest tire size to the factory size? I did see someone on here somewhere that fit 305's on stock height without any mods I believe. I just want to know the negatives and positives to the 305's. My truck is stock for the most part and will remain so as far as suspension, etc.

Wider tires are worse on everything besides dry pavement and dry dirt. Skinnier tires get better traction..Period.
BUT, 305 isn't that wide and you've got a heavy truck and 4x4 to boot, so i would say you wouldn't notice much of a difference if any at all going from a 275 to a 305 until you begin to get low on tread. Then the difference becomes apparent.
I'd get what looks good for you because you've got 4wd so no worry.
Wide tires spread the weight out and help a tire "float" on top of nasty crap, that's one of the reasons for "airing down" in certain situations. Thinner tires concentrate the weight and "dig" down through the crap.
There are situations where one is a LOT better than the other.
Good choice in tire, Al. I know quite a few people with them now (not just forum folks) and most are very pleased with them. The only two people I've heard bi*ch about them are off-road types who opted for them because of the great price in a 20" tire. For a hard core hunter or off-roader, there are a lot better choices out there, but for 95% of truck owners (2WD or 4WD) they are a great choice at a comparatively fantastic price...
