Little about my truck, 2015 Ram 1500 RWD 5.7L, Whipple blown and leveled on springs and shocks. I want to get some tires to clear my fenders and fill the wheel well a little. I can only find A/Ts that accomplish this. Now if I get A/Ts I don't want to just spin them all the time when I go into boost, especially since I'm looking to run more in the future. So please suggest a mild A/T that grips roads really well or if y'all have any pictures running wider all seasons or performance tires. Thanks!

They’re called slicks or drag radials, expand your search.

Sounds like you need two sets of wheels like everyone else that makes good rear wheel horsepower and still street commutes.

As far as all world performance, you aren’t going to find much better than Nitto G2 terrain grappler.

I saw the all terrain scorpions I'm really liking those. Might have to do two sets like suggested and get some of their slicks too

Two sets is becoming a reality quick. Prolly gonna go for some G2s or another A/T for day to day first

Plus 1 on the pirelli.

Definitely a high end tire brand, but when traction is all that matters they cant be beat.

after various tires on my crotch rocket I found that the Pirelli tires had the best balance, they didn’t get overly soft, had a decent life span, and they always hooked, “ of course when it was 40 degrees or colder I took it easy on the twisty”s.

Hopefully their quality carried over into the truck segment.

Hope that's the case! Really digging them. Just looking for more feedback on em before I pull the trigger. Most reviewers are suggesting their roots in high power vehicles to carry over to a degree

Put a set of Bridgestone Dueler HL Alenza Plus> Size P275/60R20 with 80,000 mile warranty on them. They replaced Goodyear SRA tires did not care at all for them. What a smooth ride now world of difference can not get over that. Good in rain Haven't had any snow yet to report on that. But if I was putting new tires on these are the best for this size.
