So I feel like I’m fighting an uphill battle with tires. When I got the truck it had radial street tires on the rear and bias ply street tires up front. Felt solid, till the the front right chucked the tread. Decided on Toyo open country A/T based on reviews. Worst sidewall I’ve ever felt!!!!! I felt unsafe driving the 5500lb truck around corners. Shaking the steering wheel felt like the bead was going to roll off the rim and the truck was “shaking it’s ass”. Swapped to bfg all terrains and was very happy with sidewall stiffness but only got 38k out of their claimed 50k so I decided to try general grabber ATx. Same as the toyos.... ran the bfg’s at 30psi rear and 40psi front when empty, felt great. ATx 80psi front and rear felt like 12psi on the bfg’s. All of these are load range E/120load index. I don’t understand why such soft sidewalls are selling. Truck calls for 235/85/r16, tire shop talked me into 245/75r16. Toyos were 235s, bfg’s and generals were 245s. Am I too pickey or should I be shopping for bias ply’s? The 3 peak snowflake rating is important to me being the truck is my DD and 2wd in Indiana
