I talked to a guy at a gas station yesterday with the same tires.. I thought they were 305s, but he said they were the stock size. They really look great in person, and he said they were quiet, easy to balance, and cheap. I'm sold....

Finally got my new meats put on yesterday and wow do I love them. I wound up going with stock size after much debate due to price. I wanted 275 65 20, or even 305's, but the price per tire was WAY more. I wound up getting these for just under $700 out the door which is a steal in my opinion.
They stick out a touch more than stock tires due to the aggressive sidewall. They ride great, and are only a TINY bit louder than the Goodyears. They also look much more aggressive than the photos show. We shall see how they perform in snow and ice in the upcoming months.

Have you noticed any change in MPG with the A/T tires? It's my understanding that A/T tires are a bit heavier than highway/all-seasons.

I bought my truck used (41K miles) and the Goodyear SRAs look almost new, so I'm guessing they were replaced at some point. However, wet traction is not so good even though these tires have lots of tread on them. I do like how quiet and comfortable they are but I'm interested in replacing them.

And yes, I know it's a heavy truck with a big V8 so MPGs are gonna be bad no matter what. Just curious is all

I run Falken Wildpeaks and they have not changed my mileage at all, the ride is a little harsher on bumps than the GY stockers for sure. They did awesome in the rain and now that the snow is here I can say they do awesome. They balanced perfect, very smooth riding ( I have done 107 with these to test )

I actually did lose a few mpg according to the display, I have not hand calculated it though. I knew I would lose a little due to the aggressive tread, and extra weight. The mpg loss was more than expected though, especially since I went with the stock size. Im glad I didnt go one size up. If mpg is a big concern, I would definitely stick with more of a highway tread tire vs a A/T.

I can loose 1 or 2 mpg.... my biggest concern is road noise. I spend 90% of my time on the highway. I just want the aggressive look but low road noise. I just started learning how to deal with the drone from my carven. I dont think I can handle both at the same time lol
