Best AT Tire for the HD Truck?
I have a GMC 2500 and need some new tires! I am looking at either 285/75r16s, or 315/75r16s. I have narrowed down the tires to Pro Comp Extreme AT, Micky Thompson Baja Radial ATZ, General Grabber, Dick Cepeck Radial fun Country II, Courser CT, and Wrangler Duratrac. I am off road a lot but they are dirt roads on the hunt club. I need something that does well and self cleans as well as handles great on wet pavement. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks for the info I checked it out that is a pretty meaty tred. I have been told by some friends that mud tires on an HD are more likely to get you stuck! What are your thoughts on that? I don't go mudding or look to get my truck stuck, but I do take it out in the field and don't enjoy spinning tires when I am pulling something off road.

Thats all I do also, I have only gotten stuck once with them in the snow, but I was in so deep that i couldn't open the front doors. They are a 10 ply tire also, the last a long time on gravel. My dad runs the hankook dynapro atm on his pickup at the farm and likes them a lot, he doesn't like the look of the aggressive tire. I have had a set of the dick cepeck radial they where good but didn't last very long, and also have made a set of Mickey Thompson baja are radial, I didn't like them at all, got stuck a lot with those in the snow. Toyo open country a/t are also a good tire.

Where do you farm? I farm cotton in NC and managed a farm in Northern IN.... I should say I used to farm....I am getting back into it though.. How are the tires on wet pavement? I do a lot of highway driving as well and want something that lasts a long time as well as handles in rain. I saw where they are made to last longer which is good.
