I've got the Terra Grapplers. They're nice if you don't have much load on them, but when I'm pulling the 5th I can really feel the truck getting pushed around. Like the sidewalls are soft or something. Even though they are E load rated. The BFG's I had before felt better when loaded down.

I have the Terra Grapplers too. I don't haul heavy trailers. I like the tires, they seem to ware well and not a lot of road noise.

I have the Pro Comp X/AT 33/12.5/17 (305/65/17) and they are wearing great and I have yet to have a load on her but I do not think that the side walls will flex that much.

My friend with a cabover camper went from Toyo 325-70-17's D rated to 285-75-17 Toyo AT's E rated. Night and day difference. No more tail wag.

i like my 35" pro comps they don't flex much loaded look in my galley there is a picture with 100 sheets of 4x8 plywood and you can see the side walls aren't flexed to much.

I'll second the Coopers. Over 35k on mine with no problems and still plenty of life left. I've got to get myself down to a Chapter 33 wrenchin day sometime when I get a chance. Sounds like I always miss alot of fun.
