Alright, my wheels are on order 16x8, I have an idea of the back tires i want, either Nitto grappler A/Ts or BFGs. But I want some really good high mileage front tires, money is no issue, ride comfort is no issue. I'm looking for 265/75R16. I'm partial to Michelin, my old boss ran them on his truck for towing, course he has 22.5'' 18-wheeler rims on that dually. Any ideas will be appreciated, I'm having a really hard time finding front tires.

I would go with the BFG's on the rear, I hear the Nitto's wear pretty quickly.
The Michelin A/T's should work up front.

I like those Michelin A/Ts. Prolly gonna go 265/75 Michelin A/T for the front, and 285/75 BFG A/T for the rear.

The only problem it creates is that you won't be able to rotate your tires.

I understand that. This is going to my last time being young and dumb, I hope. Plus I like the way these single cab long beds look with bigger tires on the back than the front. After these tires are done it's going to be 265 all around until i get my Dana 60 under the front.

Be sure you keep me in the loop after you move to Texas and start that SAS.
I could use some ideas for improvements on my 44 swap, and I might be some help to you as well.

I planned on getting everything together by June. But between me moving now and reenlisting, and the wife NOT wanting me to buy a house, it may have to get put on hold, but it will happen. I'm thinking after my next deployment, I'll buy everything that I need. That should be around april or may of next year when I'd get back.
