The BF Goodrich g-Force T/A is a sticky *** tire but be prepared to pay for it. Looks tough as well. I have 24" BFG's on my Tahoe with a Radix and bolt ons and 3.73's and they won't even chirp from a dead stop. No LSD yet either, so I can't even get one to spin Unless I turn the front wheel and punch it, I can get a pretty good doughnut going.
