remember that my yokos are very close to 32*10.5-17 in their 265/70-17
size - might be a far cheaper option for you if you're interested
(currently $101).
I'd aim for BFG A/Ts on that truck, myself... though all they have in
17" rims sizes are LT-sized, which you definitely pay for. but there's
3 that fit the bill....
size | rim widths | section width on rim | o.d. | load@psi $TireRack
price
LT265/70R17/C | 7.0 - 8.5 | 10.7 on 8.0 | 31.8 | 2470@50 $161
LT285/70R17/D | 7.5 - 9.0 | 11.5 on 8.5 | 32.8 | 3195@65 $182
LT315/70R17/D | 8.5 - 10.0 | 12.0 on 8.5 | 34.5 | 3195@50 $154
37x12.50R17/D | 8.5 - 11.0 | 12.8 on 10.0 | 36.3 | 3525@50 $262
I also wouldn't hesitate to replace them with goodyear MT/Rs - they get
good ink, but I've got no expirience. I'm heading to bed instead of
looking up stats and numbers on them for ya =)
