I'll back right up here if this subject is too off topic - but since I want to use my truck for pulling a trailer to haul my tractor to shows, I'm taking a chance. I have a 1994 K1500 4x4 extended cab that has the 265-75R16 Goodyear Wrangler T/D original tires still on it (it only had 29,000 miles on it when I got it). It seems like I'm spinning all over with these tires. I would like some advice on what is good choice for new rubber. Ones that are fairly quiet on the highway, heavy enough plys for the occassional load and good mileage - its alot to ask I know. I don't haul heavy material in this truck, don't off road with it and the tractor I'm pulling is '48 JD Model M (no trailer yet but I'm looking). I have Mastercraft brand on the daughters Honda Civic and they have been a decent tire for the price. I know there is big difference between passenger and truck tires. I like the looks of the Mastercraft Courser (sp) line of tires and they are priced right less than $100 per tire. Thanks for the advice.
