Update on Generals
These tires are awsome!! 
They ride so much better, they absorb bumps and train crossings so much better then my last tires. So, far I haven't seen a hit on my fuel economy. I hang about 16 mpg give or take how heavy my foot is on a given day. I was questioning the wet road traction, no problems on that issue. I have to work to get them to spin on a wet road. Drive with normal wet road caution and they'll make anyone over confident. These things GRIP!! I have been playing with tire pressures. I am slowly deflating them to see where they ride best and still support the weight of the truck. I am at 50 psi front and 40 rear. I may drop the rear another 5 psi as they still don't have a full contact patch yet. I'll bump everything up when I haul a load, they ride fine at full air pressure so I could leave them up, but only about half the tread contacts the ground at 60 psi.
I hear sunny skies this easter weekend so I'll aim to get better pics up by Sunday.
Just my oppinion, but I think these tires are going to give Toyo and Nitto a major run for their money! They are priced about the same as Nitto but much cheaper then Toyo's. Anyone who is on the fence between Toyo and Nitto should look at these Generals. I am impressed.
Madhat, when your ready for new shoes, you ought to consider these, they'd look great on your rig. Maybe by the time your ready they'll have 37's out for you.

I have mine out and get comments all the time. Only down fall to these tires is they are soft. I have two holes from rocks and they went pretty deep. I think they wear fast. My buddys rears have worn out way faster than mine. Sweet deals if you shop around and are attention getting. Not sure I will get them again though. Just my $.02...
