Default 18" tire recommendations

Hi All,
I'm in process of picking up some 18" wheels, sans tires. What sizes are folks with 18s running? I have Toyo ATs (22") on it now - they're decent and quiet, but I'd like to hear what others are using.

Thanks!
-Dave

They come with B.F. Goodrich 315's but I myself like the Toyo A/T.

I have the Toyo M/T's on 18's and love them.

Wow, brings new meaning to smashing pumpkins...

Timgco - how are those for road noise? Love the look. Can't really hurt the gas mileage any more than it is....

How about the M/Ts for noise?

Thanks for the responses!

Yeah, that's the pumpkin farm we went to this year. Fun fun!

Not bad on road noise for an MT tire. It's quiet when compared to the BFG MT's I had (this comparison is not with the new MT's though). MPG, don;t worry about that. Between the 35" stockers and these, I did't really notice...of course everything else was changed about the same too.

If you;re worried about road noise of an MT tire and want a more aggressive tire than stock, check out the Pro Comp Extreme AT. I had those in this size on my last truck for a while. They were even better on the road/ snow.

I think I'm going for these - everything I read so far said they are a good tire, and this is good price - there is also $75 rebate from Pro-Comp in March that covers $75 of the shipping. I've done business with these folks before and they are good.

I'll post pics once it is all together (and clean)
