I have a `97 Ram 4x4 1500 with 285/75R16 BFG All Terrains. They look great. Handling however is a little more truck like and slugish, turning and stuff. A little noisier than a street tire. They are also a very heavy tire. Longer braking distances and 1 mpg less fuel mileage. But great traction in all conditions. If they rub like mine you can do what I did as long as the bolts for that are the steering stops aren't rusted in. I adjusted the steering stops to prevent rubbing. I put a couple washers behind the bolts (steering stops) on the front axle that act as turn limiters. Great tire!
