While the tires you carry above fit the hieght we are looking for, when on the front of a 6000+ lb 4wd truck they are like trying to steer with marshmallow's!! Plus, you can't heat them up to utilize thier potential.

A 305/60/18 Drag Radial would be PERFECT in my book!
SAFETY is my main concern at this time. There are many ways to hack a questionable tire on these trucks but i don't feel comfortable setting my wife loose over 100 mph on ANYTHING i've found yet. I guess i should build her a FWD Honda that the tire companies & aftermarket bow down 2. It's just a matter of time before someone gets hurt running these heavy trucks with UNSAFE rubber. Just my 2 cents & sorry for the rant.
