When we got our truck we put Rancho Shocks on all four corners and it really helped in the desert(Ocitillo Wells) I have 285 Nitto Grappers. I need to upload my pics. Hold on a second.

Well if you were going to be anywhere near any snow, I'd say stick with the Revo's, but... pry not much snow in mexico
I got em on my truck and they are so awesome in the snow, its amazing!!! They're not as good as some in mud though, but I've yet to get stuck with em. And they've worn pretty good.
Like daddy said, just watch out for the mileage hit with movin to 285's.

You left out that they're pretty much impossible to hydroplane with. Under a load, I like 'em, never a skid under any conditions. Well made, hardly any weights to balance for the life of the tire.

I am a big fan of the 285s. I had to jack my torsion bars up a little because I have aftermarket rims. The 285s on the stock rim do not rub because they do not offset out like aftermarket rims. I also had to trim the front air dam.
