on the 02 r/t we had problems with the new 255kuhmo 711s we bought,the tread was separating bad,so discount replaced them with 275 kuhmo911's(?) and they fit great.make it look a little meaner too.275 is a good size.

per tire rack is the Bridgestone AT REVO, several others have rated it no less then 3rd in testing against other national brands.
Kumho = junko, lost of trucks have lots of problems with them 3 weeks ago while on I 90 in NY heading to Boston had a white chevy truck fly by me doing about 80 mph, just as she pulled over in front of me her left rear tire shredded itself, it only took about 2 seconds to reduce that tire to shredds and have her riding on the rim, and she dam near lost control, that woman did a nice job saving it. I stopped with her to make sure she had a spare and help her change it as we were about 10 miles from the nearest exit and a lot more to a service stop. Her tires were kumho's and one on the left front was on its way to shredds too. I'll bet the tire dealer in Rochester made a good profit that day on the BFG's she bought. She had asked me what I was riding on,I showed her and with 60,000 on the T/A's I am still just over 3/16ths from the wear markers.

I am running 275s on the stock rims and couldn't think of going back. It is the best size tire for the truck. It is much more planted. I am running the Falkiens right now. Decent traction.
A 360c.i motor with 255s on the back is a joke.
