I went with the Nitto TG's because of the P-metric option for less weight. Can't compare them to much, but they are so-so in my book. I was happy with them when we went on a 3 hour offroad adventure, but not thrilled with their traction on the street. I really expected them to have at least a bit of street traction, but they don't. Especially on wet roads. That's like driving on ice.

Not sure if they others have better street manners.

What gear is in your truck? Asking because I wouldn't got with 34's unless you have at least a 3.55. It takes away a fair amount of effective gear ratio.

After geeking out on pretty much every related thread on this forum, I recently did the 5100s front and rear w 1.75” level and went with the BFG KO2s. I’m happy w my choice (other than the mpg hit I took). I think you’ll love it.

Obviously, this took way longer to get done than I thought! But I finally installed Bilstein 5100's on the front. Got them a few months back for a steal off Facebook Marketplace for $100 brand new in box.

I set them at 1.75 because I pull my 28ft camper and don't wanna be nose high when I do. My wheels are getting replaced by Ford under warranty this week so I figured I'd put new tires on since I don't have to pay for mounting and balancing. I'm gonna go with 275/65 Cooper AT3 XLT's. I'll put up another picture when it gets the new rubber on.

I took off the running boards while I was at it.
