My buddy has the same truck as you, and he just put on BFG All-Terrains and he loves them. Just my .02 cents.

Hemiyellow,
Were there any clearance problems with the wider tires, is your Ram a two or four wheel drive. Is the overall height about the same for both tires and did the ride worsen when you went to a lower profile tire? Don't want toscrew up speedometer and god knows what else. Thanks

no there have been absolutely no clearance problems...could run all the way up to a 315 
lol anyways, my ram is a 2 wheel drive but hell i've been gettin around as good in this as i do with my old 94 4x4 ram, the overall height is smaller so after i got em put on and i was going to the dealer to get it reprogrammed i was goin about 75 when i was actually goin about 68...yah goin to a lower profile tire is always gonna make the ride a lil worse just cause the tire doesnt have as much sidewall to absorb the road impacts but it really wasnt nearly as bad as what i thought it would be.....but overall i have been more then happy with these tires, they have performed great in all types of weather...i go back home for x-mas break to northern iowa so we always have alot of snow and they did great in the snow up there...let me know if u got anymore questions about em...i can send ya a few pics of em too if ya want

If you are looking for a lower profile that sticks well my friend has had good luck with falken. They are a little pricey but he says nothing sticks to the road like those. I would give you the brand but they just replaced the tire with an updated one. I will try to get back to you with that if you are interested.
