I would reccomend a bias over a radial. At your current power lever a DR will probably work well since you aren't going to be pushing it very hard. But if you plan to go much faster a radial will be dificult to make work especialy on a truck.

The 28 should be great. That is what I have on my truck and expect it to easily take me into the 11s next year. The shorter the better in most cases but with you haveing a 4.10, smaller will quickly cause you issues on the big end. A 28 mwill look good on the truck and should offer you a great final drive ratio.

I have 16x8 and a set 17x8s whatever I could find that would work better with my truck and I figured radials for the whole driving on the street sometimes
