I run them. Its not the best tire out there, but it think it is the best for the money. I'm paying about $130 per tire for 275/55/20s

I say they are a good buy.

there's no such thing as a sticky street tire...especially with your power levels. The Toyos are a really popular tire, I'd recommend those.

I would be interested in seeing what a pair of Grabber UHP's look like on a smaller rim (16,17). I have only seem them on 20's.

For a 16 inch rim I don't think you can get anything wider that a 255/65 that will remain under 30 inches (for Grabbers). The only other chooses you have are 265/70=30.6 or the 275/70=31.2. Toyo makes a 275/60=29 for both st and st2.

Have you looked at Yokohama? They have a wide selection of tires, I am sure you would find something.... or try tirerack.com, they would show you all of the tires available for your truck....

I run 275/70R16 Uhps, I think they blow... Not enough traction with a V6, I'm looking to try toyo next time around. Only have about 15K miles on them might get anothe 5K with the way I drive.

Ohh wet traction goes to **** after they get past half way. I was very happy at first with them but now I'm just ok with them as I get more wear on them.
