Probably not high enough to do drag racing or even safely going above 90mph or so. So is there a multi-purpose tire that would give good performance and a high speed rating, while still being a decently agressive (about the same as the stock goodyears or BFGs) tire capable of handling snow and the occasional mud and rocks? With the power that a turbo could produce, the stock tires probably do not have a chance and most people use their trucks for all kinds of things, making a full performance street type tire out of the question. So does such a tire exist? I'm sure if it does it isn't manufactured in the stock 18" wheel range as most good tires are not avalable in this size  . |
You better choose which style of driving you want more; street/strip or off road.
The stock tires are built to be a blend of light off road and street wear but not high performance on either at all.
Low profile grippers with 20" rims or Deep dish treads on 17"/18" rims...
