Ok here is the deal, as many of you may already know finding 18" AT tires is no easy task. Most of the brands are a no-go. I have the OME lift installed and have been having a tough time picking out the right tires for the 18" OEM limited rims which are 7.5" wide. I will most likely go with the 1.25" Spidertrax spacers as well.

The truck will be used during the week doing a lot of highway miles traveling between my sales accounts. With this in mind gas mileage and road noise carry some importance in my decision. I don't want a mud-terrain but having a solid off-road tire that won't leave me stranded is important. After selling my old jeep I would still like to have something to get back into the woods and mud.

I am not really wanting to trim very much for 285s but they are on the list just in case since the BFGs are a little smaller than a full 33". BFG ATs were on my last Tundra so I am familiar with their characteristics. However the 285/60 Nittos seem very interesting since they aren't as tall as a 285/65, but are nearly as wide. My only concern is trying to install them or the BFG 285 on a 7.5" rim. Is this a definite no-no since they recommend a minimum of 8"??

Any opinions would be appreciated!

Since nearly half of the tires listed may not work due to the 7.5" rim, if any of you know of any other interesting 18" A/T tires please post them up!
