I've done lots of reading and tons of searching over the last few months and seem like I flip flop my thought process constantly so I figured I would get some more thoughts...
My truck is a 06 tundra double cab that gets used only for hunting, trapping, and fishing its not a daily driver. Currently I have 265 75 16 bfg at kos on it. I'm really looking for an ideal tire and size for the truck based on my needs. I see a lot of higher speed logging roads but also a fair amount of old forgotten winter roads that are used to twitch wood out and forgotten ( can be very muddy and filled with slash and stubs). The tire also needs to perform well in winter. Packed snow on the main roads and up to bumper deep stuff in the woods. I do run chains frequently as well...
I know no tire is going to do everything well but I think I'm looking most likely for a mud terrain and siping it.
I'd like to bump up to 33s but would like to stay thinner to cut through the deep snow better (I use the sled when it gets too deep). So Id either stay with 265 or run 255 85s if I went bigger.
So the tires I bounce constantly between have been the toyo mt, siped km2s, or the maxxis bighorn. But iv e also thought about st maxx to go milder or even 34 10.5 swampers siped to go wilder...
So lots of ideas bouncing around... Thoughts???
