Default Tire Help! Pleeeeeeeeze!

Im getting a headache from thinkin about this, and im sure your tired of reading questions like this but here it goes. I got a 2014 SCREW with 2" Readylift. 275/7018 on stock wheels or 295/7018 on stock wheels? Toyo AT2 Extremes or Toyo MT. Id like the AT but dont know how they are in mud. I encounter some deep mud when hunting but not sure if extremes are sufficient. I have had toyo mts and they were great, just tryin to save some mpg's. Any experience with the at extreme is appreciated please!!!

I know 285s will fit the stock wheels (7.5" width), but I don't know how 295s would work. My first concern is that the stock rims would "pinch" the tires and make the centers wear out prematurely. Or you'd have to run them under-inflated, which brings on a whole other set of issues.

Maybe someone else has first-hand experience with this...

285's are the most you want to run on a 7.5" wheel. Actually 275 is the recommended limit but 285's are ok and will wear evenly if you don't run the pressures too high. I have 285/75/18's in both AT2 Xtreme and MT. The AT2 is a very capable and close second in the mud and wears WAY better on the road. The MT's wear noticibly faster.
