You might want to go over to Tire Rack and read some reviews - they have 143 of them.

Eagle GT II @ Tire Rack

Let us know what you decide.

Yokohama makes a 285/70-16, just 10mm shy of that 295. have not heard much about them though.

Nitto has a Terra grappler, and there is a BFGoodrich all terrain in a 295/75-16

Default 285/60/16's here.

That's the size i have. They hook well. Of course i'm not putting much power to em', but they are pretty bad about hydoplaining. I don't think i'll buy another set of em'.
