Default another tire opinion

i know this is a redundant topic on this board but i'll ask anyway. i have a 06 screw with leveling kit and 285/70/17 bfg at's. i've got 40,000 on them and they have been good tires with many more miles to go, but they are loud imo. i can't go with a ht tire, it won't look right with a leveling kit. i don't care too much about wear or offroad ability but a smooth quiet(er) ride and white letters, which i've noticed aren't available on some brands. opinions?

You really think bfg at's are loud? I think you might be hearing something else. I cannot hear mine at all. If you dont need at's then why did you buy at's? I would go with something like a goodyear, firestone or hankook, they all make some tires that arent necessarily at's but still look right on a truck.

if you do any kind of off-roading (even FSR) bridgestone dueller a/t's are somewhat laughable i had a set of them on my old truck 2006 silverado (forgive me) and had 4 YES 4 flats on them in the first month they were quiet on the highway though :p great on road tire.. have you considered the nitto dura grappler's that would be one of my first choices for a mostly highway tire
