Default First post - opinion tires!!!!

Hey guys, this is my first post and I would like your help with some new tires. I got it down to BF all terrians, Dick cepeks F C ll's and if you no anything about the newer Cooper S/T Maxx's . Looking for a 265/75r16 to fit my 07 sport 4x4. Maybe Dick cepek D C ll's rims as well. Look forward to your thoughts.

You can run 32s on your without the body lift, just maybe crank the t-bars a little. My vote goes to the Dick Cepek FC IIs. They're a much more aggressive tire compared to the BFGs, handle great on wet and dry roads and clean out 100 times better in the mud. They also wear great, I've claims of 60,000 miles. I have 5,000 in mine and they still look new. In my opinion the only reason they aren't 100% better then the BFGs is because of road noise. There is a slight hum when going down the road.
