As "Lefty 315 stated.
My experience with BFG A/T K.O. tires are that you get what you pay for.
Last 2 sets of 4 tires each has taken me 70K each time I shelled out $1000.
I have always gone with the 10 ply tires in Load Range "E" 265/70/17
They do have plenty of 18" rim varieties for you guys with modern rigs.
Never yet had a flat in 150K of service with these tires.
Whether at 15 psig on the beach or in mud up to the bumper= no problems
20"of snow without chains

one thing I did to the back of my truck cap on the inside, went on Amazon and purchased a green led light strip about 12-14' long that has the 3m tape,ran a hot wire to the back with a fuse and a small toggle switch. So bright you can read a newspaper! Draws hardly any amps and goes on instantly. Tape has held up 3 years now to my surprise, cost under 25$ for everything.

I had a 96 S-10 ZR2. Loved that truck, went a lot of places I probably shouldn't have, never got stuck in it.
Now that I need bifocals I have cheaters in every vehicle. And in my hunting "rig" (craigslist special beater) I have more than one pair in case one gets broken/lost. Trying to see which fuse has burned out under the dash is an impossibility without them.
I'm a little surprised you haven't yet added auxiliary lighting for your truck. Having a bank of lights illuminating your camp sight area as you set up in the dark is a nice.
And in the off chance you were considering this portable blind second story addition option, a little welding and carpentry.......... Park this baby on that alfalfa field, and no deer is safe.

A dual battery set up especially with these Optima Odyssey batteries aids in winching and just having a backup as insurance.

I clean my truck once in the spring and once in the fall. The dog hair is unreal.
