Too keep the truck miles per gallon above 20++ avoid big tires & jacking up height. Firestones HT (Highway Tires) get 2-3 mpgs better than AT (all terrain). I tried both. 75-80lbs also increases mpg by 1-3mpg

I had em transfer my muds over. They only weigh 64 lbs. No lift, just level. Next meats will probably be some type of all terrain or something.
Wife is picking it up for me now so the conversation will be interesting when she gets home. Tire swap went loooong so I had to leave to get a nap in. I work mids.

Those are Mastercraft mxt in 35 x 12.5
I think they were $250 ea. I put them on my 1500 at 19k miles and yesterday I was at 32500 when I traded it so I've got 13500 on em and tread wear has been really good. Now they're on a heavier truck so we'll see. I wanted toyo r/t, but went with these cuz of price. I did like how they looked though. I will probably buy again when the time comes. They only weigh 64 lbs and spec out at 34.7 or 34.8"

I have those identical tires and love them. If you end up stepping down to an all terrain don't go to the axt. The mxt is loud but not bad. The axt's on my wife's grand cherokee are actually louder than my mxt's from 40 to 60 mph.
