Default Replacement for Kumho tires?

I am planning on installing a lift kit on my 2004, (14" tire) 2720 SD. I have the kit and was just wondering what other TM owners are using as a good replacement to my worn out 14" Kumho's? I was planning on just replacing the Kumho's, but there is a national back order for the 857's. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Many of us have had good success with the Maxxis 8008 D or E load tires. You might consider moving up to 15 inch with your lift.

I installed the lift kit and went to 15" tires. Bought Towmaster from Costco which is made by Greenball. Only have them 15 months and 1400 miles.

for a 2619TM 2009, no lift kit.

I've had good luck with the Carlisle 15" tires, readily available at Discount Tires.

If you go with an "E" range tire, people have said they ride better at 65 psi. Make sure they are balanced and have high pressure valve stems.
