I just bought some BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO tires (LT 265/75 R16.) They are normally $189 a tire, but on tirerack.com are $149.... great deal. Even with shipping it was cheaper than any dealer/mechanic i contatcted. Note: your rim size is 17, so this deal isn't for you
Its only been about a week since I've had them, but they ride GREAT!!!! Very little road noise (i'm sure that will only increase) and they handle great.
Of course I had some bridgestone duluer A/T's on there, but they were the radial edtion, they rode terrible and didn't grip good. The Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo line is a great line though.
Have you found tires yet?
