Well, I was just thinking that's a pretty expensive investment & you want to make sure they're compatible with your truck & they're gonna serve their purpose whether its on the rocks or on the highway & you'll be satisfied with them, thats all! jmo

My 3 came with Bridgestone Duelers stock and I hated them. They'll last you about a gazillion miles, but have absolutely no traction on anything other than the asphault.
If you're not wheeling, I'd go with the BF Goodrich A/T's. Mine have 50,000 miles and are just now ready to be replaced. In my opinion, they suck in mud, ok in snow.
I never understood why GM quit putting them on the 2's unless they just really wanted street car tires on their off road trucks.

Ya my BFG A/T worked great on my H2 and they last a good long time for the size of the thing. I dont see much mud living in AZ but for sand/rocks. They held up pretty good. I did get some chunks tore off the tread but I was rock crawling and that just happens. For an All Terrian they are one of the better choices.
I just finaly went to a more aggresive M/T because of how much I off road and I got a deal. $200 for a set of 5 Pro Comp Xtreme M/T because my buddy didn't like how they rode. He bought them on looks only. Hey my gain though.

I am running Nitto Terra's on mine, and they are fine for mall crawling dont expect alot from them off road unless its sand and rocks.

I will say I got alot of mileage out of mine

I went to a smaller wheel size (18 inch XD Revolvers) and wrapped them with Dick Cepek's finest

One of the biggest problems I have with the Nitto's is the $400 per tire price

I have a friend that is running a 325 size Terra Grappler on 20's he says they are a decent tire but then again I dont think he sees much dirt with his H2.
So again like it's been said it all comes down to what you are going to be doing with it. Around town and maybe some dirt roads Then I would say any of the good All Terrain tires will be your best choice for living with on a day to day. If you are going to be doing any hardcore off roading and dont mind the ride there are a few good tires but it would come down to your terrain in your area.

P.S. My BFG A/T went anywhere I needed it to, be it up or down the Mountains, sand, rocks. Just keep them out of the mud.
