Default Good tires?

i have a 2001 ford ranger edge. i have stock 235/75-15 on them and they look like crap. im looking for a mud terrain/all terrain tires or something that has good traction. what are some good brands and sizes for my truck thanks. Im looking at Falken Rocky Mountain ATS 235/75R15 105S BLK, and Bridgestone Dueler A/T 695: are these a good brand and size for her?

In addition to the SilentArmors,

I know they are not in your list, but I'm running the Goodyear duratracs and I live them. Not too loud, good grip, look more aggressive than they are, but work awesome in the mud!

I have cooper discover at3 on my truck. They are amazing. They are quiet and even in mud while pulling a trailer they grip! They are the best tires I have ever had. If they made them in a 33 I would get them when I lift but they don't. I'm currently running 31s

Default Re: Good tires?

what are your plans/intentions as far as use for this truck? that would help alot in giving you recommendations. in florida, snow is not a concern...but mud? sand? how much highway use? I'm pretty set with BFG's. they were on my last 3 trucks and i have a set of 33" KM1's to put on my Level II when my at's wear out. even though the name got a bad rep, i would like to try some firestone destination mt's some day...along with possibly some pro-comp mt's too

Default Re: Good tires?

idk i dont agree with anythingcanhappen. idk how tires get "outdated" but bfg all terrains last FOREVER and are good in "all terrain" i live in florida its mostly sugar sand around me i deal with that, mud and road and i cant complain. mud terrains look nice and hold up to their name but the road will rip em up. the least i can say is go with an A/T or use it as a mud truck
