I'm unsure what tires to get. Leveled the truck and now the stock 265s look even smaller. Have the alcoa h2 rims on the way and i'm looking at the BFG KM2, the Toyo MT or the Dura grappler. I do a descent amount of highway driving but am stationed down here in south Texas so do some beach driving also. Stock tires sometimes start spinning when i get into the power even in 4wd. Just wondering which ones i should get. Like the muds but they are more expensive and increased noise and negative handling is keeping me from pulling the trigger. Let me know what you think.
I love the toyo mt but for street and sand I would say duragrappler

How is yours so bad? My friends truck has 24 inch wheels and 37/13.50/r24 Toyo MT's and he put out 498 Horsepower to the wheels with a PPE on 310, an exhaust, and fuel pump and he still gets 14 MPG in the city!

488whp was the final number... and he gets 12 in the city and 14 freeway...

if it was my choice it would be the Toyos all the way..
you wont see hardly any mileage change between a MT and a AT tire in the same size.
