Looking For Tire Recommendations Read!
Ok, right now I have 15x8 MT Classic II's with 32x11.50x15's. I don't particularly like the setup on my truck, so I want to change it! I want to go back to the stock 16x7 FX4/Edge 5 spoke rims. The thing is, I don't know which tire size or tire to go with. I want something that looks aggressive, although I'll be honest, I don't do much, if any, offroading due to it being my only form of transportation. I do want something a tad bigger than what I have now. I was looking and found a few tires in the 285/75/16 size that I like. Here they are, please post up positives or negatives on all/any tires:
BF Goodrich All Terrain
BF Goodrich Mud Terrain
Goodyear Wrangler MT/R
Mickey Thompson Baja Radial ATZ
Pro Comp Radial Mud Terrain
Pro Comp Radial X Terrain
Again, price isn't really that much of an issue, nothing over 230 per tire though. I drive to and from work Monday through Friday, only about 5 miles one way. On the weekends, I might take it to the beach (on sand), or through a field to go fishing. We rarely get snow here, but I want to have something that will drive good in it. Also, rain traction is pretty important. Thanks for any help in advance!

you might want to also check out the Mickey Thompson MTX's. they are a nice A/T with a aggressive look. They are going to be my next tire once I sell my BFG's.

i dont see why they wouldnt. i know the shop local by me would.
those ATZ are suppose to be pretty good. 01xltranger4x4 his dad has them on his f250, they look great and i dont think he has complained about them.

Edit: never mind the style I like the smallest size in a 16 is a 395x55 (33x15.50)
