Tire recommendations

[TDevil]

I have a 2014 1500 5.7L with 8spd transmission (8HP70) 4x4 with 3.21 gears. I currently have the stock tires (P275/60R20) that are original.
I am considering a level kit, but do not want to have a ton of space around the tire. If I go to 34s, and a front leveling kit (like the 5100's) would there be any rubbing?
Aside from size, I've seen people who like Toyo Open Country's, Coopers, etc. I used to like BF Goodrich on my Ranger, but that was a few years ago when I made my last truck tire purchase.
I drive 75% highway, and only see off road a few times a year, though I do end up on job sites / construction sites that are essentially giant mud puddles. I'd like something with decent wet traction and very good snow traction. I live in Maryland, so we see snow more than a few times each winter, but I have some reasons so I cannot be trapped at home in the snow, so something that will get me around in the white stuff is very important. I don't need anything overly extreme as far as tread, but I do like a slightly beefy look.
Any help / direction is appreciated. Thanks!

I am just leveled and running 35/12.5/20 no problem. You can run 275/65/20 without level. I ran a set of Toyo at2 275/65/20 50,000 miles and they still had plenty tread.

I've bough two sets. Falken Wildpeak A/T for summer, as it is not so noisy as M/T's and bought Nitto Terra Grappler for winter as we have a lot of snow sometimes. In your case I think Falken will be more than enough with fair price

The BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 Tires come highly recommended.

I'm looking at tires pretty soon too and I'm leaning toward the Toyos. Haven't seen them in person yet but I've heard a lot of good things about them.

The BFG KO2s are also another good choice, I just don't care for the tread pattern

From what I've "researched" on here, Nitto Terra Grappler's in 295/60-20 with Bilstein's at 2.1 are just right. I had the Terra Grapplers on my previous vehicle for 3 years and they were flawless. Worked great off road, were quiet on road, and never had an issue in snow (not that we get much of it). My neighbor had them on his '13 Ram and loved them, too. I'm guessing they had 45k-50k miles on them in 3 years and still had a ton of tread left.

Once the time comes to replace my tires, that's what I'll go with.

Top 2 choices for me would be goodyear duratracs and toyo open country at2's, i love my duratracs and likely wont ever get a different tire, ive had bfg's in the past and never again

 

[Csanders1992]

Another vote for Duratracs.

Cooper discoverer at3 or atr

 

[TDevil]

So:
Goodyear Duratracs - 2
Toyo Open Country - 3
BF Goodrich - +2 -1 = 1
Cooper Discoverer - 1

Awesome. Appreciate it everyone. I've BFG's in the past without issue, but it's been years. I'm not overly impressed with the stock Goodyear tires, I'm at 30k and they did not hold up well (I burn out occasionally, especially after getting the truck, but not excessively) I've heard good things about Toyos but they are also a little on the expensive side. Guess I'll see. Thanks!

I got my Toyo AT2 put on today. Liking the look so far. Just got them literally 30 minutes ago, so can't say much else lol. Little bit more road noise, but when you are going from the stock crap-years to these, I will welcome it.





These are just in the stock 275/60r20 size.

 

[hankRam2015]

Those look great.

 

[develand]

From a distance you can't really see the sidewall tread, like you can if you got the extreme tread. But I wasn't paying that much, and I didn't need truck rated tires on this single cab v6.

These are the non xtreme P version right?

 

[JJEH]

I recommend Nitto.

Just got these yesterday.

 

[R/T_Fire]

I recommend Nitto.

That would be my selection...

 

[hankRam2015]

Mean looking tire ..nice

 

[develand]

That is correct. They are much more aggressive looking then i was expecting, which I am happy about.

Just got these put on this afternoon. 275/65R20 Cooper ST MAXX's. Absolutely LOVE them. Had terrible luck (3 flats in 37K miles) with the stock SRA's so I figured it was time for a change.
