sweet, anymore pics? since the tune, ive been playing with my buddies on the highway and i dont feel too safe on the all terrains that are on the truck now. i want to get a tire with a proper speed rating as well as better traction. i was hoping maybe nitto made a tire that would fit my description. i wanna keep the truck as stock looking as possible until everyone finds out whats up, which will be a while (heads, cam, nitrous etc..) then ill put some nice wheels on it.

You cant go wrong with either tire IMO... I have owned both, I just wish the UHP's came in more sizes. with no drop I'd go with the 265/70 UHP's... I had 255/65 UHP's with a 3/5 drop.
