    I've got a 2015 Tundra 1794. It's 4x4, but no mods on lift/ suspension.

    I've currently have Michelin LTX M/S2 275/55 R20's on it. Been exceptional tires - But really highway tires. I'd like to go a little bigger and get a little more aggressive tire (like an AT). But I don't want a mud tire or anything to aggressive. I don't want to sacrifice the ride that much. Most of time will be city/ highway.

    On going bigger, I've been told I can go 285/55 R20 with no issues - Giving we a little more weight and width.

    Any recommendations on tires?? In my research online it looks like the Michelin ATs and the Cooper AT3 rate well.

    Again, I want a little bigger tire than I have now and a little more aggressive tire - But try not and sacrifice the ride/ comfort to much.

    Your feedback is appreciated!

    I have never been a Cooper fan until I got a set on one of my vehicles (just because it was a really good deal). I really liked it and got two more sets after that. I think the Cooper will be a great tire for you.
    You can also go 275/60 R20 if you want to go bigger, without getting wider.

    Thank you! I don't have a lift or any mods on the suspension - But got a lot of empty wheel well. I'd like to fill-it-up some, think it would look a lot better.

    Michelin AT's are nice but aren't aggressive looking at all. Would just stick with MS2/Defender instead. I'd go BFG KO2

    Thank you. BFG KO2 has come up a lot research, but I'm concerned they are to aggressive. Got them on a ranch vehicle and they are awesome. Concerned i'd give up to much ride/ comfort for my city/ highway ride. I'm also told that they are even rougher riding the second half of their life. Perspective? Thanks again.

    The stock 32" sizes for 1/2 ton trucks are about as tall as P-rated tires will get. There will be a noticeably more "truck-like" ride on anything that's LT-rated. I think all KO2's are LT-rated, and anything over 33" tall will be as well.

    If you stick with stock size, you can get more aggressive A/T tires that are still P-rated. Bridgestone Revo 2, Nitto Terra Grappler G2's, and Hankook RF10's come to mind.
