Default 305/50R20 tires on H2.

Goodmorning to everyone...
Will mount on my H2 305/50R20 tires for road use only, and 315/70 all-terrain use only when I go off road.
For a use strictly road (100% road) what brand of tire 305/50R20 feel better for use on an H2?
Thanks and ciao.
Luigi

When it comes time for me to replace my tires I am going to replace them with what came on it from the factory, BF Goodrich T/A. They wear well and are a good all-around performer.

Goodmorning Vegas, and as usually, thanks to care about my threads...
Yes, you say right, BF Goodrich are good allterrain tires, but my idea is just to use them on hard roads (for example, this summer I'll spent my holidays in Sardegna, an italian island with a wonderful sea but terrible roads, and the BF will be perfect for them...) but during normal travels, on normal good roads, I'll have more confidence and feeling to use 100% road use tires... This is the reason of my request...
Thanks again.

the 305/50/20 is a short tire and is only 32 inches tall. I personally think it will look really funny being so short. go with a 305/55/20 which is 33 inches tall instead at the bare minimum. Ideal stock height tires would be 295/60/20

Mmm ... Only now I realize that the tire's alternative measure indicated on my italian registration certificate is probably wrong, 305/50R20 instead of 305/60R20, which is the official measure alternative read on the H2's data sheet on the official Hummer website...

Hello Crotone.
Do you think 305/50/20 looks no good on a H2 because too short...? I've understood well?
Thanks

If you think about the road use you describe the BF Goodrich are still a good choice. They wear well, give a comfortable ride and they are quiet.
