my g/f's dad had toyo at's on his 250 and loved 'em. alot quieter and smoother than nitto at's. i'd look into them. can be a little pricey though.

if you want humm, you need super swampers.

they seem to be a good tire I dont really wheel my truck but I have herd they are not that good in the mud. they are pretty quiet for being a mt. I have herd that the nitto mud grapplers are loud on the road if thats what your looking for.

KM2 BFG MT's is what I'd go with, well actually I would go with MTZ's but you want something different.
