I have Bridgestone Dueler A/Ts and switched from the stock street tires. The all-terrain add a more aggressive look. MPGs may go down a little if you switch from street tires though.

You can see mine here. MPG went down about 2.0 with these but they definitely make the truck look better.

Personally I love my Nitto Terra Grapplers... yes I just got them put on, but I love the aggressive look they give to the truck. The tread is nice and deep, and surprisingly enough for an All Terrain they are very quite on the interstate. It may because they have no wear on them, but I love every aspect of them. No I haven't gotten to fully use them yet, because I'm still trying to baby them in you know the "break in" period. Once that's over I may go do some trail walking or moderate rock crawling to see how they handle. I really only needed them for snow because the area I live in can get somewhat bad in the winters, and I need something backing me when I'm pulling the snowmobiles up the mountain haha. They had really great ratings for snow and wet traction, plus I got a good deal (at least I think I did). I was honestly considering BFGs, but they have really low speed ratings, and the all terrains look more like a maximum traction which made me cringe.

Your Nittos are going to wear out faster than the BFG's

Already knew that, but it also depends on how well you take care of the tires as well. By the way techrep do you ever make posts that are longer than a sentence haha?
