I have had 2 sets of bfg's, 2 sets of toyos, and one set of coopers. The truck came with bfg's, and they were great. the bigger the tire gets, the more bounce you get. when running 35" tires, I've found that the load range e tires offer less bounce than the 'd' tires. cooper and toyo both offer 35's in a load range e.
the engineers had 265's in mind when they engineered the

if you have replaced the cross members, tie rods, have a steering box stabilizer, replaced the upper and lower ball joints, and the track bar bushings if not the track bar completely with moog or other equipment and still get a shake in there under acceleration check your drive line.

Throwing away ANOTHER set of BFG's because they will NOT quit vibrating and bouncing, and that is 33\16 E rated tire on a 2nd gen. Sidewallls are NOT heavy enough for the truck and once they heat up from some use they will NOT balance out.

Springs, shocks, and tires all contribute to the bounce not driveline. Thats a vibe not an obvious bounce that is easy to feel and track.

Zippy the ashat has been running D rated Bridgestones with no issues but he knows load range has nothing to do with vibration

No you haven't, you are lying about it just like the rest that will find any excuse to blame suspension. Any tire salesman KNOWS load range plays into how a tire performs on a given vehicle and a lot will not sell you a tire NOT rated for said vehicle.

The fact that you continue to insist on ridiculous assumptions just proves you haven't enough experience to be a reliable source. It takes no time searching to see that the BFG's in particular have a bad rep for just that problem.

What you do with your DD pavement queen bears little realtionship to the real world experience. Keep sprinkling the pixie dust on it and congratulating yourself, only satisfaction you will get here.

You sir are a moron, I've never ran BFG's just stated what I've read from other members but like I said no issues with my D rated Bridgestones. The fact that you insist that load range contributes to vibration tells me you are not as much of a know it all as you think you are, but keep believing

LMAO, you never run a BFG but you know all about how good they are. You have never run anything but a D rated tire and you are an expert on ratings and sidewall construction. I have thrown away more problem tires than you have ever owned for the very reasons you say do exist. You obviously do not even begin to understand side wall construction and ratings but you are an expert.

Keep sprinkling that pixie dust and drinking the koolaid, only way you are ever gonna make it thru life.

First off I said that the most of what I have read about BFG's was positive, I never stated that I had ran any, nor did I state that I had never ran anything but D rated tires. You just make assumptions and I will state it once more for you LOAD RANGE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH VIBRATION and trust me I know more about sidewall construction and load ratings than you know about the pixie dust and koolaid you keep referring to
