Well after having my truck sideways at about 45 MPH and almost crapping in my pants-its time for to get rid of my crappy dunlop radial rovers. Any suggestions? I have a 1997 Dak 318 RC 3.55LSD 15/8 rims. Im thinking about 275's. Thanks.

And just for Sh!ts and giggles:
- Nitto NT 555R Drag Radial: 275/50R15/8


My personal opinion is the Yokahama AVS S/T's. But in order to get these you have to inch up to at least a 16. Or you could go agressive and go with the Dunlop Radial Rover R/T and stick with the 15's.

I'm gonna vote for the Pirelli Scorpion Zeros.

Yeah, they look cool, and they offer spectacular handling characteristics....

...and they're QUIET! No squealing or chirping that's normally associated with enthusiastic cornering.

I may tend to drive my truck hard, but I'd prefer not to draw any unneccessary attention while I'm doing it.

They weren't cheap, but from what I could tell, no 18" tire was, and even if I could've had a set of 18" "Big O" specials, I wouldn't have.

Scorpion Zero.... no regrets. None at all!
