from what i hear the duelers do a pretty good job. my friend has them on an Xterra and they look pretty good. i do not know how they are off road so i cant help you with that
 






I have the Dueler A/T REVOS and I love them. If I could find someone to post the picture I could let you see. I think the H/L and A/T tires are pretty silimar. I don't have any lift or drop on the truck, but the tires fill the well very nicely. BTW, no rubbing at full throw of the wheel.
 






ight i have a newbie question... what inch is the 265 tire? im asking because teh tires i have on my truck now are 255/70/16 but what is the 33" considered __/70/16
 






If you are looking for a 33" tire, you'll either need to go for a 33" tire or look at a 275/75 tire, which by the way will not fit on stock rims.
 






285/75/16 is close to a 33" tire, it equates to 32.8"

a 275/75/16 tire would easily fit on stock rims without a problem, and would only equate to 32.2"

they do make inch sized LT tires that are not P or Metric rated

also the duel ht has kinda an ugly tread design, but they are a good highway tire, they are not agressive at all, they are a street tire
 






you gotta be careful though...... a 275 tire is really only for a 7.5 inch wide rim. The stock rims are 7" wide.

it pretty much doesnt matter that much... you can mount a 33x12.5 on a 6" wide rim, this setup may not be ideal, but it will mount up
 






265/70/16 Bridgestone Dueler H/T, I am on monday going to have a set of 4 fitted to my 98 xlt, I will post a review after a week or two.
