What are you planning to do with the truck? Just street driving? The Bridgestone Dualer or Dualer A/T are good tires. So are the BGF Long Trails or more aggressive A/T's.

Goodyear wranglers are good, but wear out fast. Pirelli Scorpions are good too.

Are you looking for bigger tires, or OE size?

I would probably say BFGoodrich Long or Rugged Trails then. I got almost 80k out my BFG A/T's. Rotation is the key to long life.
