then you DO NOT want bias ply tires......they will be out of round in a matter of days and ride like crap....

why do you want 10.5 wide tires? you should get atleast a 12.50 tire since your truck is lifted and you off road it....

the 12.50 wide tire will be nice on a 8" wheel....i ran my 33" BFG's on a 15x8 for 43,000 miles and they to my knowledge are still on the road somewhere.....

the look hella agressive. But doesn't look like they have much tread void. Looks to me as if they'll gum up quick in mud.
