Hello.  New here and new to finding tires other then what is locally supplied.  I have, however, been doing a lot of research on the internet trying to find tires for my pick-up.  It is a 2000 GMC 3/4ton 4x4.  It is my daily driver/work/hunting rig.  I've pretty much narrowed my search down to 3 tires.  Also, this will be for summer and fall us as I have winter tires that go on it for that time of year.  

The tires are Toyo Open Country MT, Mickey Thompson ATZ and Dick Cepek FC II.  Of the three which would you buy and why?  Road conditions they will see is pavement and gravel roads and be used for pulling trailors and field use hauling heavy loads.

Thanks for your help.

Would you use swampers to tow a horse trailer, or haul 400g of water around, or drive pavement and gravel roads on a daily basis?

Your asking a man who drives around town and goes hunting with 54in Boggers on his truck.

So to answer your question, yes.

Nitto trail grapplers are great on and off-road, I have 37x12.50 on my Ram2500 and love them.
