I was in Chicago the other day and saw a similar truck I guess with stock 20's and BFG AT/KO's, can't say size, probably the 305's Wandell speaks of but it was awesome looking. Truck looked otherwise stock.

Hi JFM. Those look good! This is my first season with the Pirelli's in the snow and they are terrible. Do you know if these would fit without the lift? Any other suggestions for the stock 20's? It doesn't look like the Blizaak's are available anymore.

I'm going across the grain a little. I'm pretty sure you said you don't really need a mud tread.

How about Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo ?

Hay there Bebert well you should be ok to fit those tires with out any lift.Cuz i did my research and i do beleve unless u go with anything bigger than a 33 inch tire you should be ok. As far as tire suggestions well Wow there is alot out there and the reason i went with the Cooper was price and the look. One of my other favorites would be the Toyo M/TProcomp s,Extreme Ats BFG AT KO's, Nitto Terra Grapplers. Its pretty much just depends on what u want to spend and by the way these tires are awesome in the snow I did notice a big difference.

Thanks guys. I don't really need a mud tire. I want something that is decent in the snow and ice. I probably will keep them on in the summer time when I doe some highway traveling so I don't want them to be too loud. I didn't want to go above $200/tire. The Dunlop's do seem like a good deal. There were alot of good reviews on the discounttire website. I don't know if anyone else running them. I have been considering the Nokian Vatiiva's but their aren't many places around here that have them in stock.

Just recently bought a 2008 KR S'Crew with the 20" wheels and Pirelli's. Didn't know that so many had a problem with these tires. I haven't experienced much, although had some minor vibrations the other day on a cold ride longer than my normal commute of 1 mile. I'll have to keep an eye on the situation as if there is a problem I'll want to get it corrected ASAP.

On my 2001 Lariat S'Crew I replaced the OEM Goodyear's with the Bridgestone AT Revo at about 27000 miles. The Revo's were great tires and got me through anything that I needed. Also put 50000 miles on them before I traded in that truck - and there was still probably another 10-15000 miles of tread left.

Time to watch the Pirelli's!
