I normally run Toyos, but this last time I bought Mickey Thompsons because the price was right. Never again. MT's are complete garbage. The Toyos are great off road and not bad on the highway either. A little noisy, but nothing compared to the MT's.

Well this Friday I'm setting the truck down on 315/75/R16 Toyo MT's. Hopefully they fit ok on the OEM rim because right now I don't have the money for aftermarket ones.

Well, after fitting both on the OEM rims and doing no go full cranks I was not comfortable having to loose my mud flaps and being 3/16" to the lower control arm. So, I dropped back down to the 285/75/R16 and they too look sharp all be it a little smaller in height.

They look great and run good so far! Pictures tomorrow.

alot of people up here are switching to the m/t's from the m55's to run on the woods roads. theyre holding up just as well plus getting better traction. we run alot of black rock up here and it just kills the tires but the m/t's are one of the few mud style tires that dont chunk off right away. i have m55's on my truck but plan on switching to the m/t's when they wear out.
