If you value your life you won't put them on your truck.
Firestone went broke over the steel radal 500 in the 70's because the tire developed a bubble - partial tread seperation. Brigstone purchased them.
Just not too long ago they had a simular problem on the Ford Explorer woth an AT tire. The tread would seperate and cause the Explorer to flip killing a lot of people.

BF Goodrich allterain radial is a great tire - more money but definatly worth it.
Firestone does make a great bias ply tractor tire.
