I will join the group & post my thoughts. I wheel in the same areas you are talking about. I believe you would be happy with either Mud's OR A/T's. I use both & in the Sierra's, really see very little difference in perfoemance between the two. I do like the looks of the Mud's better however. And todays BFG Mud's are not at all noisey on freeways.

On one of my L/C's I switched to 16 in wheels (BFG Mud 235-85-16) & now believe 16's is a good way to go. These are load range E & can really take the weight, with a huge safety factor. IIRC with max air, each tire will support aprox 3000 lbs. You most likely don't need that much...but when you go out for a week or so your rig can get heavy...FAST. I like the safety.

For me the best place to buy my BFG's was Costco & I had Stockton Wheels make the 16's. Sounds like you are pretty on top of it, but be certain to get the correct backspacing. Right now I just don't remember the #'s

Have fun trying to digest everone's opinion. However, todays tires are so good, it's pretty hard to make a bad choice.
