I wanted to get some mud tires for my truck to fit the stock rims[maby 295 or something like that] but I need the load capabilitys of the E rated tires for hauling my gooseneck trailer. What do u guys recomend for these situations. I was looking at some bfg mt's and toyo open country mt's

 

295 Toyo M/T's.

 

do u know if those will handle the weight and do u know if those will have plenty of clearence with stock suspension?

 

go with toyo, very reliable and will wear good. had a set with 40k. loved them

 

I had a set of Firestone Destination M/T in 265 70 R17 E rated on my 04.5'. They worked good for pullin' and muddin'. Don't know if they have bigger sizes though. Good Luck
ez

 

They have the highest weight rating of any 295 M/T I could find. It's somewhere around 3800lbs per tire. The 295's don't even come close to rubbing on a stock truck. IMO they should be the stock size tire for our trucks.

e range. rarely rub. not too loud. wear seems to be ok. wow in the mud.

 

Toyo's are E rated , great in mud and snow with no rubbing on my 3500 SRW with 295's . I have had some big loads on them with no problems and they have 20,000 miles on them so far with little wear . Down side , you will need to rotate every 5,000 to prevent cupping and they do howl a little . A pricey tire , expect to spend between 300 to 350 a tire and to wash your truck a lot more , they throw dirt . I will put them back on mine when this set is tired , I like them that much .

 

Yep Toyo MT's

 

Do they rub because you have aftermarket rims with different backspacing though? I've never heard of them rubbing before on a stock truck.

 

ive bought 3 new sets of toyo tires now, they are one of the best out there I think.

 

ITS BECAUSE OF THE AFTERMARKET AFFSET AND BACKSPACING. I HAVE 315/70/17'S BFG AT'S ON STOCK RIMS. NO LEVELING KIT AND NO RUB. AS SOON AS I MOUNTED THEM ON AFTERMARKET RIMS, AND MOUNTED ON THE TRUCK, THEY WERE HITTING BOTH FRONT AND AFT OF CENTERLINE OF HUB.

 

I have 305 Pro Comp Extreme AT's on mine, they are e rated and great in mud. They are a mix of an AT and a Mud tire all in one!

 

What's the overall height of those 305's? Are they similar in size to 295's but wider?

 

yes aftermarket backspacing and wider wheels.
