Tires... Yet again...

Well Kids, Its time to put new Sneakers on the Ford (05 F2fiddy Diesel) again. I always dread throwing tires on this truck because they are an odd sizz (265-70R17) and usually cost some coin. Of course the The General HT Grabbers I buy have been discontinued so I'm thinkin BF Goodrich Rugged trails this time around. http://www.discounttiredirect.com/d...nter=3&ar=70&rd=17&vid=011899&sw=false&cs=265

My other choice would be the pirellis.... http://www.discounttiredirect.com/d...r=2005&ar=70&rd=17&vid=011899&sw=false&cs=265
I dont want an offroad tire because I do 30-50K a year on the highway and the only time I'm offroad is at the track or pulling into the grass with the camper..... So no mudders needed I also dont want the hwy noise....

Any thoughts are appreciated.

I had good luck with Michellin's a few years back. Do they make that size?
 
I have 265/70/17's on my GMC 1/2 ton. They are the Michelin LTX A/T2 tires.. At first i really didn't like them. but after having them for almost a year, i fell in love. they barely wear down, they are super quiet and a nice ride, and have awesome traction for their close tread pattern. I would highly recommend them
 
a buddy of mine runs a whole bunch of tire shops throughout california and he told me to get the Falkens next time i go in... i was about to buy them over the Nittos but they didn't have the size i needed at the time. Him and everyone at the shops are running the Falkens though and love them
