Default Tire Choices for 04 Ram with 20 inch Wheels

I have an 04 quad cab 4x4 ram with 20 inch wheels and the original garbage Goodyears on it. It's time to put on a tire that actually grips the road. I'm not into off roading but looking for a smooth ride withgood traction in dry and wet conditions. Tire Rack top rates the following tires for the Ram size: Michelin LTX M/S, Avon Tech ST and the Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza.
Wondering if anyone has have experience with these tires or any other suggestions. Thanks

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

i have the 20" as well and right after i bought my truck i swapped the tires out for a set of Cooper Discoverer H/T Plus...they have worked great for me, no road noise, excellent grip, very good in the rain and actually pretty decent in the snow....if your going to buy some Bridgestones, i would buy a set of the Dueler H/T Revo...personally i think thats the best tires bridgestone makes but thats all just my opinion
