PROXES STII
i just mounted a set of 295/45/20 and 265/50/20 on my truck and they are amazing...putting over 500ft/lbs to the ground and at 30psi they actually hooked really good from a roll. i was skeptical af first after having KDWs. Im sold....Toyos all the way.

I drive a 2006 Dodge 2500 cummins turbo diesel. Weigh in around 7klbs with me in it. RWD only. I run 20x10 rims. I have run 2 set of toyo proxes stII's 305 and 295/50/20. And I have run 2 set of General grabber UHP's in 295/50/20. I feel like they are both good tires but the 320 tread wear is stickier.
However, I do run at the track from time to time. Truck is currently sitting @ 575rwhp/1100's lb. Ft torque. I feel like the generals faired better in wet conditions. Seem to resist hydro planing very well when running through puddles etc. They also have pretty good wet traction until about half tread life then forget about wet traction.
I was able to cut a 2.049 60' on the generals. That run yielded an 8.60 in the 1/8@83mph. About 1.5yrs ago. I run 390/40/17 drag radials now.....Hope this helps.

They make those tires in a LT??
You never want to run a passenger radial on the 3/4 or 1 ton truck, they are never rated for the weight. I'd never sell P tires for that size truck either and not only that but never want to get in a wreck and have the police see P rated tires on a LT rated vehicle.
