My truck needs 4 new shoes. It wears a size 315.

I wanted to post to see what everyone here is running on their truck. I'll tell you what I want out of a tire and maybe y'all can point me in the right direction for what to buy.

I want an ALL TERRAIN tire, but I want what I call "aggressive" all terrain terrains meaning that they are kinda a mix between a mudder and an all terrain that has good street/wet weather traction, pretty decent self-cleaning capability in deep mud, is quiet on pavement and balances well, and can last a decent amount of time on the street like maybe 30k miles. Maybe I am a little but I think that with technology the way it is now that there has to be something that will match what I am looking for....Give me the 4-1-1 please!!! And money is not an issue. There's so many tires to choose from now that I am lost and if I go to a tire shop of course they're going to tell me that theirs are the best ....

Those are looking good! 80# each in the 35" size. Only 3# less then their cousin the Toyo MT. Must be a pretty beefy carcass.

Dick Cepek FC-II's. Best tires I have ever had on any truck. They wear great and are pretty quiet on the road. In this pic they have about 20k on them.

loving my 315's on my 96. Very agressive looking for an A/T, especially in that size. Extremely quiet and excellent in the wet weather we have around here. Couldn't be happier. Only been off the pavement a little bit, so I can't really comment on that aspect. 50000 mile tread, too.
