Did a bunch of research online and ended up going with some 285/75-16 Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armors for my Ford F250 Superduty.
http://www.goodyearwrangler.com/goodyearwrangler/html/index.jsp http://www.goodyeartires.com/goodyeartireselector/resul...mrktarea=Light+Truck These tires are Load Range D rated at 3305lb per tire. The tread is pretty aggressive. It is a cross between a mud terrain and an all terrain. The lugs are very deep too. Apparently these have the same Durawall sidewall protection that the MT/Rs have, but also have Steel and Kevlar belted tread. They hve 2 steel belts and 3 kevlar belts. After lookin at them, these would be great tires for wheeling if someone wanted something a little more durable than a BFG A/T. I havent been able to cut a sidewall on my MT/Rs yet.. if these things are just as good, they would rock offroad. Walmart wanted $245 each for these tires. I shopped around and got Discount Tire to sell them to me lower than their own price at $160/tire. Was looking a little further into their site.. Goodyear really stands behind their tires. Check this out. This is part of the standard tire warranty package:

NOw, I have to say up front that I own GOODYEAR stock. Have for a few years now. Like everything I've bought( almost) it tanked after purchase so it pains me to The way that reads, they give you a winch out but you eat the tire... SOunds harsh< i'm sure it couldn't really be that way, but you never know. The other caveat, is you have to wait around while someone show up to change your tire. And if you don't have a spare you're up shiite creek when it comes to the charges. I guess some people could take advantage of it, but how many 4x4 wreckers will GOODYEAR contract with( or will be available nearby to winch you out)? NOw, the fact that they stand behind the tire structurally failing , for whatever reason, ..................... "Climate change is no longer science. It's politics...
