Bridgestone's That I Cant Stand

[Duse]

This will be probably the first of many stupid questions in the days to come.

I'm finally getting around to doing some stuff to the truck I bought a year ago.

05 2500HD CC SB

I have Bridgestone Duravis M77-3 ,245 75 16

They have good tread and aired to 50psi

The rear slide when wet and makeing a turn(the posi keeps it under controle but still a nusince)

even on grass they spin.

I'm wanting to get goodyear AT's .(any problem going up 1 size?)

Should that be better for wet roads or is it the nature of the beast?

For the second stupid question

What the differance between body style?

I keep hearing NBS??I dont have a clue

You can easily fit 265's on there. I had the Goodyear AT/S' on my last truck and I thought they were good tires. They were decent off road and had good mannerisms on the road.

Poor wet traction is more the fault of a stiffly sprung, unloaded truck, than the tires.

Sure would hate to buy a new set and find it still slides.

How would the michelin LTX or the BFG AT

compare with Duravis M773

I have LTX's and run 45#s in them. But the rears will still slide and spin, with to much foot, if i'm not carefull. Some surfaces are worse than others.

wonder if the dura grapplers are worth the price.......

[Duse]

I decided to go with the Nitto Terra grappler's

265 75 16's or 17's

If I find some chrome 17" wheeles I like
