Most of the guys usually run Nitto's for their DD's. You could step up to some BFG's or M/T's but then the tread life is going to go down. It's just according to what all your looking for in the tires?

I'm looking for tires that will hook good, give good traction and will not wear out easy.

then nittos are your only option.

nittos > bfg > MT for tread life. I've had all 3 and there is a huge difference.

Nittos for a DD. The better they hook the quicker they wear out. Hoosiers probably wear as fast as the M/T's.
