they look great. I think you sold me on that size. 305s would probably look a tad better but those look great, have a lower load rating, and are going to be quite a bit lighter so gas mileage should be better. Narrower will probably be better in the snow to boot

Thanks! The load rating is what sold me on them. With my 3.21 gears she's still peppy. She works a little more up steep inclines at highway speeds but that's expected when you go up in size without regearing on anything.

Based on just the pictures they don't look that much more aggressive than the Terra Grapplers but the pictures probably don't do them justice. Im sure in person there are a lot more differences. I have 3.21 gears and could definitely feel a difference. I believe mine are load range E and I'm not sure, but they might make a C also. Even though you say that you don't feel much difference you might look into getting a flashcal or something to adjust the tire size. It helped my gas mileage, the shift points feel a lot more comfortable (like 1600 rpms at 60 mph instead of 2250ish) and its nice to be able to adjust the minimum psi for the low tire pressure light.

Gotcha, I was surprised when you said you didn't feel a difference and were still getting good gas mileage. I went from 17(mostly in town driving) to like 13 before I got the flashcal.
