Bridgestone Dueler A/T's (695's or REVOs) or Dayton Timberline A/T's are my vote. I run 30's on stock susp. so unless you are sagging they shouldn't rub.

What is treadwright's reputation? They seem considerably cheaper than Bfg's or similar tires. I've never heard of them before does anyone run them and if so what are your thoughts on their all-terrain capabilities? (Are they decent off road while still being a fairly quite well-wearing street tire for a DD?)
