I use my truck for commuting, hauling, towing, you name it. I drive 700 miles / week for work and still have the stockers on. A year of that, and over 40,000 miles on the clock, it's time for some new meats. Everyone has their own flavor that they're fond of, I tend to use Nitto Terra Grappler / Toyo OC AT / Toyo OC MT. I believe they are the same co and they make some pretty good, good looking, and cheap-ish tires. These are my set-ups, but I like the older style look with the bigger tire and smaller wheel.

'14 EcoBeast: (very soon)
305/70r17 (34x12) Toyo Open Country AT II
Fuel D559 Formula 17x9




'92 Bronco: (current)
35x1250 Dick Cepek Extreme Country
Mickey Thompson Classic III 15x10




'93 F250: (coming soon)
325/80r16 (36.5x12.8) Falken Wildpeak
US Wheel 044 Stealth Crawler black 16x10




I wish I could put the Mickey Thompson Classic IIIs on my Eco. I've always loved that style, but they don't make what I want bigger than a 16" in my lug pattern.

I am a little different than most. I went from stock platinum wheels to 22s. Then I went to stock tremor 20s. Now I am going to some status knight 26s lol. I can never make up my mind on what look I want.

I rock the Vision Warriors because you cannot beat the price ($350ish for a set) and they look amazing on almost any color truck.

As for tires, I have run just about every tire out there. I've liked almost all of them. Can't really go wrong these days. Except, the Falken Wildpeak sucks. I'll likely never touch those again.

I like having a little more tire than wheel. Anything bigger than 18's doesn't strike my fancy but the same can be said about my wheel/tire combination. Different strokes for different folks as they say it. Needless to say, I like my Method Race wheels and Toyo Open Country AT2's.

You're right, I should've been more specific. I want some black Classic IIIs in that size and looking on the Mickey Thompson website, they don't make any size in our lug patter with in all black. I'm going black, but with a different wheel. Anxious to see how they look on the Blue Jean truck. My buddy says don't do it.....but I'm doing it!
