So I'm about to pull the trigger on some 295/70/18 tires and some new Gear Alloy 713mb (Double Pump) wheels. I'm torn on the tires. The Trail Graps look so good but they are probably not the most practical for how I use my truck.
I drive about 90 miles a day round trip for my commute to/from work and it's all interstate driving. So I put a lot of miles on my truck. How will the tread life of the Trails compare to the Terra's?
I do not take my truck off road at all I just like the look (don't hate). How do the Trails handle in wet conditions? I also pull a 22ft boat that weighs about 4,000 pounds dry and some of our ramps can be steep. I also wonder about the wet surface traction on the highway.
The guy at the tire place says the wet handling and tread life on the Trails is going to suck compared to the Terra's with how much I drive.
What are ya'lls thought on this as I'm sure many of you have had both and can give me non biased real world opinions.
Thanks
