Looking to get a nice set of more aggressive tires for off roading but also not too much road noise for day to day driving.... Looking at Toyo M/T Open Country
Also looking to go up to a 18" tire from OEM 17"..Looking for suggestions, I like the KMC Rock Star (Black) Hoping there is no rubbing using Stock suspension
Looking for suggestions......

I run 37x13.50 R 17 Toyo Open Country M/Ts. they are awesome. I go places the stock tires never allowed. I get better gas mileage with these than the stockers and the ride is smoother too. I do not find them noisy in any way, but that would be in comparison to other mud tires not all terrains. Comapred to other mud tires they are whisper quiet, compared to the highway tires the H2 came with...they emit an acceptable hum!<DIV> </DIV><DIV>At first the do rub at full lock on the sway bar, but now with a cognito motorsports front leveling kit and Sway-a-way torsion bars being installed before this years trails this should no longer be an issue.</DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV>Kevin</DIV>

look nice and aggressive, I am now looking up a place to get hooked up in town (Toronto) Will keep you updated but I think this is a keeper, not sure how his mileage got better but I won;t fight that, I can use better mileage like everyone.
