what is the best tire brand? best rim?photoshop any1. Need to make decision ASAP!!!!

What is the best tire brand for someone who only does about 5%off-roading. I was thinking of pro comp xtreme a/t. They have a 50,000 mile warranty. Any other suggestions for my driving style. Also along with those tires what would be a good rim choice(16" 0r 17") for a dark shadow gray truck. Along with the pro comp tires I was looking at the pro comp lock style chrome (series 6079)

Is procomp a good choice for my driving style(65%city35%highway5%off-road)??????????

What about the Baja Radial MTX from mickey thompson???


What do you guys think. Will the procomp xtreme a/t with the chrome lock style series 6079 look good on my truck?
Or should I go with mickey thompson baja radial mtx with same rim?????

Could any1 do any photoshop for me?

Need inputs soon making decision within a couple days

By the way I plan on putting a 6" lift with these 35" tires

Michelin LTX M/S

Michelin LTX M/S if you don't do much off-roading. I've got over 69,000 miles on my set and they've still got probably 20-25,000 miles of good tread left on them. Check out the reivews on www.tirerack.com for the LTX M/S.

Good luck!

Well, time has told us that the BFG A/T is a great all around truck tire. It will go 50k, not alot of road noise, and tougher then nails. If you are in it for quality and looks thats the way to go.

With the pro comp, they have not been at it as long, but I feel that they have a quality product. I put alot of thought into what to do with my truck and between the BFG AT and the pro comp AT or Xtreme AT I decided on the PC Xtreme AT. My only deciding factor was the size. BFG did not make the AT in the size I wanted so I went with the XATs. From experence though, the regular pro comp ATs are good tires. We put a set on my bros ram almost a year ago and they still look great. They handle the snow great and look good to boot.

That help you any?

Nico-yes thankyou. I think I will go with the PC Xtremes. What about rims. Is procomp lock style(6079) a good choice with that tire to go on my truck with a 6" lift?

Any photoshop possible?

Revos

Make sure you look at the bridgestone Revos! I've had them for 57,000 miles and they are by far the best ones I've ever had. I have them on an 03 supercab FX4 265/70/17. Cool looking to! Read the reviews on this website.

F pro comp and 4 wheel parts. dont expect that 50,000 mile warranty to EVER be honored in case you need it

buy BFGs or nitto/toyos from discount tire, les schwab, big O, and similar places. they all offer competitive financing, good prices, nationwide service, and they put their money where their mouths are

The Mickey Thompson Baja Radial MTX is a good tire with a good reputation. Their new Baja Radial ATZ is also getting good reviews.

I have the 33" MTX for about 39k miles. Still got good tread on them. I do a little offroading every year as well. Tehy are very good in the winter.
