Little update, so far the Dynapro's are doing pretty well. I've noticed no decrease in gas mileage on the overhead at all.. and the nice thing, is that what used to be a 24 mile drive has now turned into a 23 mile drive... so in reality, the fuel econoly probably got a touch better Just can't tell by the #'s.... but I can live with that


Ride is pretty good, the tires are a touch bit "wishy washy" compared to the stock michelin tires were, meaning they seem to walk a touch, but being a little wider, I would expect it. Dirt road traction is a TON better then the michelin's ever thought about being, road noise is very limited/barely noticable, so that's good too.

Not sure how they will be in snow, rain they're fine, better then the michelin's were, so I think they'll probably be o.k.

Overall pretty happy after a week... have to see how it goes with the mileage and wear on them... if they hold up to 45 to 50 thousland miles, I'll be buying another set.

The 285 size tire is a great fit too, no clearance problems anywhere, no rubbing, and it's just enough so the truck looks right now.
